- GlaucomaGlaucoma is progressive damage to the optic nerve – the part of the eye that carries the images we see to the brain. Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness in the United States.
- OphthalmologyEvery year, people suffer serious eye injuries from backyard fireworks displays. Most of the victims are children and bystanders located nowhere near the pyrotechnics. As Independence Day nears, Insight Eye Specialists and the American Academy of Ophthalmology is working to dispel the myths that put people at risk of blindness.
- Macular DegenerationSeniors age 65 and over should have complete eye exams by their Insight Eye M.D. every one to two years to check for cataracts, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and other eye conditions.
- Laser Eye SurgeryLASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis) eye surgery is an effective technique for correcting refractive errors, including nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. With LASIK, your ophthalmologist uses a laser to reshape the cornea in the front of the eye. This improves the way the eye focuses light rays onto the retina at the back of the eye.

- Cataract SurgerySurgery may help improve more than just your vision. During the procedure, the natural clouded lens is replaced with an artificial lens called an intraocular lens, which should improve your vision significantly. Patients have a variety of lenses to choose from, each with different benefits. Studies have shown that cataract surgery can improve quality of life and reduce the risk of falling. If cataracts are interfering with your ability to see well, consider asking your ophthalmologist about cataract surgery.
- Eye ExamAs with all medicine, early diagnosis and treatment can help people with their overall health. Just as with a physical, it makes sense to visit an ophthalmologist (Eye M.D.) for a routine eye exam.
