A common condition that causes blurred vision, astigmatism occurs when the cornea (the clear front cover of the eye) is irregularly shaped or sometimes because of the curvature of the lens inside the eye.

A common eye disorder, blepharitis is caused by bacteria or a skin disorder and it can affect people of any age. Most commonly, blepharitis presents as an inflammation of the eyelid.

A cataract is the clouding of the lens in the eye that affects vision. Most cataracts are related to aging and are common in older people. By age 80, more than half of all Americans either have a cataract or have had cataract surgery.

Cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMV retinitis) is a serious viral eye infection of the retina, the light-sensing nerve layer that lines the back of the eye. It is most often found in people with weakened immune systems.

A corneal abrasion is a superficial scratch on the clear lens at the front of your eye. This cornea can be scratched by contact with dust, dirt, sand, or other materials.

Corneal dystrophies are a group of rare, genetic diseases that affect the cornea, the front part of your eye. They may cause significant vision impairment.

The most common cause of vision loss in people with diabetes, diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness among working-age adults.

Dry eye is not just an annoyance. It can cause inflammation, blurred vision, and even blindness in extreme cases.

This is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve. The damage is often caused by high pressure in your eye. Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness for people over 60 years of age.

Keratoconus is an eye disorder in which your cornea thins over time. The cornea also bulges out to form a cone-like shape.

Sometimes called age-related macular degeneration, this is a medical condition that may blur a patient’s vision or block vision in the center of the visual field.

This is an emergency situation in which the retina pulls away from its normal position. The longer retinal detachment is untreated, the greater the risk of permanent vision loss.

This is a blockage of the small veins that carry blood away from the retina. It is typically caused by high pressure within the eye.

This is the name for a group of rare, genetic conditions that involve the breakdown and loss of cells in the retina. Typically, patients suffering from retina pigmentosa have difficulty seeing at night and lose peripheral vision.

Strabismus is most common in children. It is when the eyes don’t line up, or they are crossed. The eyes (one or both) may turn inward, outward, turn up, or turn down.

This eye inflammation affects the tissue in the eye wall and can present with eye redness, pain and blurred vision.

Our ophthalmologists routinely diagnose and treat virtually all eye conditions, injuries, and diseases. In most cases, we can treat patients medically. However, when more aggressive treatment is required, our experienced surgeons are ready to serve.

In addition to our highly skilled ophthalmologists, we have an experienced team of optometrists who can conduct eye examinations and identify issues.

Screenings can help to determine if you need medical treatment for glaucoma or cataract.

Laser eye surgery can be used to correct the curvature of the eye to improve uncorrected vision.

This reconstructive surgery focuses on the eyelids, eyebrows, the bone around the eye, and the tear system. The procedure is commonly done to correct and treat injuries and diseases of the eye, eyelid, and surrounding areas.

The procedure is used to improve the refractive state of the eye and decrease the need for correction through glasses or contact lenses. It can include cornea remodeling, lens implantation, or lens replacement.
