LASIK Eye Surgery
Our team of eye surgeons in Michigan and Ohio perform LASIK eye surgery to correct a variety of vision issues. Our staff utilizes the IntraLase method and advanced techniques to enhance your eyesight. A beam of laser light is applied in the procedure to enhance the accuracy and safety of the treatment. The computer-guided equipment is more accurate than other mechanical methods. Schedule Appointment with our staff of ophthalmologists to become familiar with the advantages of performing LASIK eye surgery.
Cataract Treatments & Surgery
If cataracts in your eyes are preventing you from reading or traveling, they will need to be removed. Our team of eye surgeons and doctors offer cataract surgery and eye care solutions to clients in Ohio and Michigan. Our staff offers traditional or laser cataract treatments to enhance your vision. This type of treatment is referred to as an intraocular lens implant surgery. Cataract surgery is a popular eye care option because there is a low risk of complications. The procedure is quick, safe, and effective.
Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a condition that is associated with an array of other vision issues that are caused by a collection of fluid in the eye. The easiest way to detect the early stages of glaucoma is to visit an ophthalmologist and eye doctor each year. This degenerative condition often has minimal or no symptoms. If you do not receive a diagnosis and treatment for glaucoma, the condition may cause damaged vision or blindness. Our doctors and eye surgeons are equipped with the tools and techniques necessary to detect glaucoma.
Dry Eye Treatments
Dry eye is a condition that can be caused by Meibomian Gland Dysfunction. In addition, the source of red and irritated eyes may be associated with medications, autoimmune conditions, contact lenses, hormon alterations, and allergies. If you are having difficulty keeping your eyes open due to dry or irritated eyes, give our team of eye doctors a call by phone at (866) 435-8935 to Schedule Appointment. Our doctors and eye specialists offer the latest proven dry eye treatments in the industry. We will perform a diagnosis to identify the source of your irritated eyes and develop a treatment to alleviate the symptoms
Keratoconus Surgery
The symptoms of vision loss may be related to damage to the cornea in your eye. If the cornea becomes too thin or exposed to outward pressure, it will start to bulge and negatively affect your eyesight. Our staff of eye surgeons provide state-of-the-art corneal transplants or keratoconus surgery to clients. We offer eye care solutions in areas such as Ann Arbor, Toldo, Kalamazoo, and Jackson. Our doctors will analyze your cornea or eyes and will create a treatment option that aligns with your vision loss and symptoms.
Retina Care
The retina is a slim layer of cells that are located near the back of the eye. The retina is a component of the central nervous system that is critical to your vision. Eye diseases can negatively impact areas of the retina including the macula and fovea. If you are encountering the symptoms of a retinal disease, give our staff of eye specialists a call at (866) 435-8935. Our doctors offer retina treatments that are designed to eliminate or slow the progression of diseases.
