• Laser Eye Surgery
  There are many risk factors for dry eyes. Medications, age, sex, occupation, systemic diseases, contact lens use, and post Lasik or refractive surgery are frequent causes. Even more common is poor blinking. All day long we stare at our phones or tablets or computer screens and we blink less frequently. This clearly affects a lot of us and is another risk factor for developing dry eyes. Even the secretion of excess tears can be because of dry eyes, as your body created a compensatory response for insufficient tear production.

• Diabetic Retinopathy
  If you are one of the 29.1 million people living with diabetes, eye care is an extremely important part of your treatment and management plan. People with diabetes are especially at risk of suffering from diabetic eye diseases, particularly diabetic retinopathy. It is a slow-acting condition that damages the retina of the eye; as a result, diabetic retinopathy usually affects patients who have lived with diabetes for many years. Without treatment, the cumulative damage from diabetic retinopathy may result in blindness.

Plastic Surgeons

• Botox
  Are you thinking about trying to reduce your wrinkles? Botox is just one way to address this issue. It is a safe and effective treatment that has been used for decades across the world. It is best used on places where the wrinkles are caused by muscle contraction. In other words, the wrinkles that appear when we smile or raise our eyebrows. While Botox is typically thought of as a treatment for cosmetic issues, it can also be used to treat eyelid spasms, eye muscle disorders, and other similar musculofascial conditions. Botox can reduce the frequency of muscle spasms and even help to realign eyes that are slight unfocused.
• Eyelid Surgery
  Before proceeding with the treatment, our doctor would first have to evaluate on why the patient is seeking the treatment.  Your doctor  will review the surgical plan  to correct the drooping eyelids and make it look proportional. For patients dealing with vision-related problems due to ptosis, eyelid surgery would be done in the first place to correct the drooping eyelids, followed up by addressing the remaining vision problems through other treatment methods or even a corrective surgery. In most cases, the eyelid surgery will sufficiently remove the vision problem, and further treatment may not be necessary.

• Face Lift
  Also known as dermal fillers or just fillers, cosmetic fillers are injectable products that restores lost volume and fill in the static wrinkles, which could be due to the aging process or the sun or other environmental damage. These fillers provide instant volume increase in the depressed areas and it would also stimulate the production of natural collagen, which is a principal component of the skin to make it more resilient and firm. When injected into an area of skin, the gel helps to add some volume to sagging tissues, lifting sagging skin. As age increases, the capacity of your skin to produce collagen decreases, so these fillers will come in handy to help increase the production of collagen thereby prolonging the initial treatment. Both Botox® and fillers can be used together. Many people choose to use both Botox® and fillers to create the same effects as a facelift without the long downtime and excessive costs. But like Botox however, these injections will not have a permanent effect.
• Blepharoplasty
  A blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure to correct the drooping and sagging of the patient’s eyelids. During a blepharoplasty, our doctor would remove or redrape the excess skin, muscle and the fatty tissues over and around the eyes, to create a more natural and youthful looking eyelid. This procedure to fix the upper eyelid is relatively straightforward and it affects only the surface layers of your skin and the soft tissues around the eye.

Dermatologists

• Ulcer
  Eye pain: Eye pain is a symptom that should never be ignored, as this symptom could indicate problems such as a corneal ulcer, an infection, or even inflammation of the nerves of the eye. Pain that is accompanied by blurry vision, discharge, redness or teariness should be investigated immediately, as this may indicate a serious eye problem that could permanently damage your vision. While it doesn’t hurt to call your eye doctor for advice, depending on the severity of your symptoms, you may be asked to visit an ER for immediate examination.
