Glaucoma Care
We provide the latest technology in testing for and diagnosing glaucoma as well as the latest methods for treating glaucoma including the newest medications and laser treatment which is performed in our in-office laser suite. Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in the United States, especially in older people. Early detection and treatment are the keys to preventing optic nerve damage and blindness from glaucoma. For this reason, we highly recommend anyone at risk for developing glaucoma and all patients over the age of 65 receive a dilated eye exam every year.
Please Note: A glaucoma screening that checks only the pressure of the eye is not sufficient to determine if you have glaucoma. The only sure way to detect glaucoma is to have a complete eye examination.
Diabetes Eye Care
We provide the latest methods for treating diabetic eye disease (diabetic retinopathy) including the newest medications and diabetic laser treatment which is performed in our in-office laser suite. It is important to pinpoint and treat the blood vessels in the eye that are damaged by diabetes as soon as possible. For this reason, we highly recommend all diabetic patients receive a dilated eye exam every year.
Cataracts
A cataract is a clouding of the lens inside the eye that leads to a decrease in vision. Left untreated, it is the most common cause of blindness and is conventionally treated with surgery. Vision loss occurs because opacification of the lens obstructs light from passing through and being focused on to the retina at the back of the eye.
Cataract Surgery
We perform the latest technique of small incision, no shot, no patch cataract surgery. It is performed as outpatient surgery. We typically do not require our patients to have an IV placed, although monitored anesthesia care with an IV is available if needed. We generally prescribe something by mouth to relax you before the procedure. After the procedure, patients generally can return to their usual activities the next day. Medication eye drops are prescribed starting the day before and continue for three to four weeks following the eye surgery procedure. New glasses, if needed, are prescribed three weeks following surgery. The second eye can have surgery, if needed, one to two weeks after the first. We do not perform surgery on the second eye until we are certain that the first eye is doing well.
We offer the latest in intraocular lens implant technology utilizing advanced technology lenses and precision Laser Customization.


A final decision regarding cataract surgery and lens selection should only be made after talking with your surgeon. The surgeon can help you decide after discussing your lifestyle and the specifics regarding your eye surgery.
The medical part of the procedure is usually covered by medical insurance after any deductibles and/or co-payments are met. Medical insurance also usually covers the cost of the standard monofocal lens implant. A monofocal lens implant, allows for good distance vision, provided the patient does not have significant corneal astigmatism, but will typically require reading glasses or bifocals for near vision.


At The Eye and Laser Center, we have 2 ways to treat astigmatism and allow you your best chance of seeing your clearest after surgery. Low to moderate levels of astigmatism can be treated with a precision Laser System. Moderate to high levels of astigmatism are treated with special advanced technology lens implants called Toric intraocular lenses.
Payment plans are available which can allow the patient to pay for any non-covered costs related to the surgical procedure with low interest financing.

Laser Vision Correction
Our practice has been performing laser vision correction since 1999. We perform Wavefront Optimized laser vision correction in our in-office laser suite. We use the Wavelight Allegretto Wave® Laser. This system is designed to provide treatment which helps improve the quality of vision after laser vision correction. For more information about this laser please visit myoptilasik.com.
We believe personal attention from your surgeon is important before, during and after refractive surgery. All preop and postop care is provided by our eyecare doctors.
We are committed to providing our patients with excellent results, and if we do not think you will have a result that will satisfy you, we will not recommend the procedure. For some patients, contact lenses and/or glasses are a better option. Our first concern is your safety and long-term satisfaction.

Contact Lenses
We fit soft, soft-toric, bifocal and gas-permeable (hard) contact lenses. We can often fit patients who have had difficulty wearing contacts before or have been told they were not candidates for contacts. In fact, other doctors’ offices refer their hard-to-fit (keratoconus) patients to us.
