Conditions We Treat
Whether you are experiencing blurry vision, discomfort, or more serious concerns, we provide the expertise and technology you need for lasting eye health.
Explore the conditions we treat below:
Refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia are among the most common causes of vision changes. These conditions occur when light entering the eye does not focus properly on the retina, leading to blurry or distorted vision.
Eye allergies can cause redness, itching, watering, and swelling that interfere with daily comfort. These symptoms often result from pollen, dust, pet dander, or environmental irritants.
AMD is a leading cause of vision loss in older adults, gradually damaging the macula responsible for sharp central vision. Patients may notice blurriness, difficulty reading, or trouble recognizing faces.
Also known as “lazy eye,” amblyopia occurs when one eye develops weaker vision during childhood. Without treatment, the brain may favor the stronger eye, leading to long-term impairment. Early detection through pediatric eye exams allows for corrective therapies.
Infants and young children may experience blocked tear ducts, causing constant tearing or infections. In many cases, the problem resolves naturally, but some children require minor procedures to open the duct.
Cataracts develop when the natural lens becomes cloudy, leading to blurry or hazy vision. Symptoms often include glare, halos around lights, and difficulty seeing at night.
Pink eye is an inflammation of the conjunctiva that causes redness, itching, and discharge. It may be viral, bacterial, or allergy-related, and treatment depends on the cause.
A retinal tear or detachment is a serious condition that can lead to permanent vision loss if not treated promptly. Symptoms include sudden flashes, floaters, or a shadow over vision.
Diabetes can damage the tiny blood vessels in the retina, leading to blurred vision, floaters, or vision loss. Regular eye exams are crucial for early detection, since symptoms often appear late.
Dry eye occurs when the eyes do not produce enough tears or when tears evaporate too quickly. This causes irritation, burning, and sensitivity to light.
For patients with blocked oil glands contributing to dry eye, LipiFlow is a safe, FDA-approved in-office treatment. This technology uses gentle heat and massage to unclog glands, restore healthy tear film, and provide lasting relief.
Floaters are small dark shapes that drift across vision, while flashes may look like brief streaks of light. While often harmless, these symptoms can sometimes signal retinal tears or detachment.
Known as the “silent thief of sight,” glaucoma gradually damages the optic nerve, often without early symptoms. Left untreated, it can cause permanent vision loss.
Keratoconus is a progressive condition that causes the cornea to thin and bulge into a cone shape, leading to distorted vision. Patients may experience frequent prescription changes, double vision, or increased light sensitivity.
Strabismus occurs when the eyes are misaligned, pointing in different directions. It can affect both children and adults, causing double vision or impaired depth perception. Treatments may include glasses, vision therapy, or corrective surgery.
