Routine eye health exams are crucial for maintaining optimal vision and eye health. These exams are designed to detect early signs of eye conditions like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. Our comprehensive eye exams include vision acuity tests, eye pressure measurements, and thorough inspections of the eye’s internal and external structure. We recommend annual eye exams to keep your vision sharp and your eyes healthy.
Glaucoma laser treatment is a procedure that helps to lower intraocular pressure in the eye, which is crucial for patients with glaucoma, a condition that can lead to optic nerve damage and vision loss if not managed properly. Different lasers may be used for different types of glaucoma. Modern Eye is pleased to offer both Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) and Laser Peripheral Iridotomy (LPI) in clinic! This treatment is often recommended when medications alone are insufficient to control eye pressure. The procedures are generally comfortable and only take a couple of minutes.
MIGS, or Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery, offers a less invasive alternative to traditional glaucoma surgery, with the goal of reducing intraocular pressure to prevent further optic nerve damage. MIGS procedures typically involve the use of microscopic-sized equipment and tiny incisions, resulting in fewer complications and a quicker recovery time. MIGS can be an effective option for patients seeking to manage their glaucoma while minimizing the risks associated with more extensive surgical interventions. Conveniently, it can be done at the same time as cataract surgery and just takes an extra minute!
