General Practitioners

• Primary Care
  Dr. Daniel Fleming is a board certified optometric physician who practices in general optometric primary care, while also specializing in vision therapy. He was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and attended St. Lawrence University, receiving his Doctorate of Optometry degree from Pennsylvania College of Optometry. He completed his externship at the Bay Pines Medical Center in St. Petersburg, Florida, and completed his fellowship in the College of Vision Development.

Ophthalmologists

• Glaucoma
  Glaucoma is an eye condition characterized by damage to the optic nerve that can lead to vision loss or blindness. It is often caused by high intraocular pressure and may not present any symptoms until it is in advanced stages. Treatment options may include eye drops, laser therapy, or surgery to lower intraocular pressure and prevent further damage to the optic nerve. Early detection and treatment are critical for managing glaucoma and preserving vision. Regular eye exams are recommended to screen for this condition, especially for individuals at higher risk.
• Macular Degeneration
  Macular degeneration is an eye disease that affects the macula, a part of the retina responsible for central vision. It is typically age-related and can lead to progressive loss of vision. Symptoms may include blurred or distorted vision, blind spots, and difficulty with activities that require central vision, such as reading or driving. Treatment options may include lifestyle changes, such as a healthy diet and exercise, or medical interventions such as injections or laser therapy. Early detection and treatment are crucial for preserving vision.
• Laser Eye Surgery
  There are several techniques to control or correct visual myopia, a common condition that causes nearsightedness. These may include corrective lenses such as glasses or contact lenses, or refractive surgery such as LASIK. Another option is orthokeratology, a process of using specially designed contact lenses to reshape the cornea overnight and temporarily reduce myopia. Lifestyle modifications such as taking frequent breaks from screen time, getting regular exercise, and spending time outdoors may also help control myopia progression.
• Cataracts
  Sometimes the internal structures of the eye can not be viewed due to opacities in the front of the eye such as corneal scars and cataracts. It is crucial to be able to examine these structures to make sure the eye is healthy. The B-scan ultrasound helps us to view these internal structures using sound waves to image the inside of the eye. Also known as a sonogram, this is the same device used to image a baby inside of a mother's womb, altered for use in the eye.
• Cataract Surgery
  Cataracts are a common age-related condition that causes clouding of the natural lens in the eye, leading to blurred or distorted vision. Symptoms may include difficulty seeing at night, halos around lights, and increased sensitivity to glare. Treatment options typically involve cataract surgery, a safe and effective procedure that involves removing the cloudy lens and replacing it with an artificial lens implant. This surgery can significantly improve vision and quality of life for those affected by cataracts. Early detection and treatment are important to minimize vision impairment.

Endocrinologist

• Diabetes Care
• Diabetic Retinopathy
  A diabetic eye exam is a comprehensive eye exam that specifically evaluates the eye health of individuals with diabetes. The exam may include visual acuity testing, dilation of the pupils, and imaging of the retina to detect any signs of diabetic retinopathy or other diabetic-related eye complications. The eye doctor may also review the patient's medical history and discuss any concerns or symptoms. Early detection and treatment of diabetic-related eye conditions is critical to prevent vision loss or blindness.

Radiologist

• Ultrasound
  The thickness of your cornea can be measured to 1/1000 of a millimeter using this ultrasound device. This test can be important in determining your risk of developing glaucoma, monitoring the health of your corneas during contact lens wear, and determining your eligibility for LASIK eye surgery.
• MRI
  We are proud to offer the latest in eye diagnostic imaging with this device, which is usually only found in larger multi-doctor clinics. The SD-OCT uses light to create high resolution three dimensional images of the eye similar to an MRI. It can detect pathology as small as 5 microns (5/1000 mm). We use it to evaluate macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and many other diseases.
