Ophthalmologists

• Glaucoma
  Glaucoma is a family of diseases that affect pressure within the eye, eventually damaging the optic nerve to cause vision loss or blindness. When pressure inside the eye increases, blind spots in peripheral vision may develop. Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness in the United States. Often called the “silent thief” of sight, most forms of glaucoma do not produce symptoms until vision is already severely impaired. If diagnosed early, the disease can be controlled and permanent vision loss can be prevented.
• Ophthalmology
  At Mudgil Eye Associates, PC, one of our specialties is the management of Adult and Pediatric Strabismus. Dr. Mudgil is a board certified ophthalmologist and fellowship trained specialist in Pediatric Ophthalmology & Adult Strabismus. He has received national recognition for his extensive research involving the treatment of eye muscle disorders that cause double vision in children and adults.
• Macular Degeneration
  Myopia results in a greater risk of eye diseases, such as glaucoma, cataract, retinal detachment, and macular degeneration later in life.
• Laser Eye Surgery
  LASIK and epiLASIK are the two most common laser vision correction procedures performed. LASIK involves using a femtosecond laser to create a partial thickness flap in the cornea, followed by using an excimer laser to change the shape of the remaining cornea to correct the refractive error. Following the laser applications, the flap is reflected back into place. The vision usually improves over the next day, but it will continue to heal/improve over the next 3 to 6 months. The patient can typically return to work the day after surgery.
• Cataracts
  A cataract is a clouding or opacity within the eye’s lens (see video below). The lens, like that of a camera, is important for focusing light rays onto the retina. When the lens becomes cloudy, light rays do not pass into the eye easily, resulting in blurry vision.There are many types of cataracts. The more common types are listed below...
• Cataract Surgery
  You can have it removed at any time, including if your vision worsens and you need a procedure like cataract surgery in the future to have an IOL implanted. For patients with astigmatism, the EVO Visian ICL also comes in a toric model.
• Eye Exam
  A routine or medical eye exam does not include a contact lens fitting/exam. Contact lens exams are more complex and require additional services, measurements and time to perform and therefore incur a separate charge. This portion of the exam is not covered by insurance. We will gladly provide you with a receipt if you wish to submit these charges to your plan.

• Diabetic Retinopathy
  Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness in American adults. It is caused by changes in the blood vessels of the retina. In some people with diabetic retinopathy, retinal blood vessels may swell and leak fluid. In more advanced disease, abnormal new blood vessels may grow on the surface of the retina. These changes damage retinal tissue that can culminate in blindness.
