We’re Here to Help Manage Eye Disease
Many eye diseases can develop with little to no symptoms until your vision is affected, putting your vision at risk. While these symptoms can be hard to identify alone, we can diagnose these problems using our diagnostic technology. Identifying these problems as early as we can is crucial for protecting your eye health and vision.
We can recommend a treatment plan suited for your vision needs after a diagnosis. Our team is here to help manage eye disease.
Common Eye Diseases
While you can develop eye disease at any age, your risk increases with time. Regular eye exams are important as you age, helping identify changes in your vision caused by eye disease.
The earlier we diagnose a problem, the less chance there is of vision loss. We test for eye diseases like age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma during our eye exams.
Age-Related Macular Degeneration
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a disease affecting your central vision. Aging causes the macula to slowly lose the cells needed for your central (straightforward) vision. This disease affects your ability to read, drive, or recognize your loved one’s facial expressions.
Two forms of AMD exist: wet and dry, each requiring different treatments.
Cataracts
A cataract is the clouding of your eye’s lens. This condition typically occurs due to age, worsening with time. The proteins and fibers in the eye break down and clump together, making the lens opaque. Cataracts can progress until they significantly affect vision, with many patients requiring cataract surgery to see clearly.
Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is a serious disease a patient with diabetes can develop. It occurs when damaged blood vessels in the retina swell and leak fluid and blood. As this disease progresses, it can lead to continued bleeding or scarring.
Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that damage your optic nerve. This disease can lead to significant vision loss if left untreated, making early diagnosis and management crucial for protecting your vision.
There are several types of glaucoma, including:
