- Macular DegenerationWe offer the latest advancement in Glaucoma testing with ERG (Electroretinography) which can tell us if the optic nerve is under stress and at risk for glaucoma. This helps us determine when we should treat to prevent damage from glaucoma as the other glaucoma tests can only show damage that has already occurred. The ERG helps us to monitor macular degeneration.
- CataractsA cataract is a clouding of the eye’s natural crystalline lens, the part of the eye responsible for focusing light and producing sharp vision. The crystalline lens lies in a sealed bag, or capsule, within the eye and is made up of water and protein. When protein cells clump together, the end result is a cataract.
