Glaucoma is silent — most patients have no symptoms until significant vision loss has occurred. We screen, diagnose, and monitor glaucoma and other ocular disease — including macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy — using best-in-class imaging and visual field testing.
Serial OCT imaging of the optic nerve and retinal nerve fiber layer
Threshold visual field testing
Macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy monitoring
Intraocular pressure (IOP) monitoring across the day
Topical therapy initiation and titration
Timely referral to ophthalmology and long-term progression tracking
Glaucoma is a group of conditions that damage the optic nerve, often linked to rising fluid pressure inside the eye. The most common form — open-angle glaucoma — progresses so slowly that many people notice nothing until significant vision is already gone. Routine comprehensive exams are the most reliable way to catch it before that point.
Age-related macular degeneration affects the central part of the retina — the area responsible for fine detail. There are two forms: a slow-progressing dry type tied to natural aging, and a less common wet type involving abnormal blood vessels behind the retina. Both benefit from early detection and regular monitoring.
Diabetes can gradually damage the small blood vessels in the retina, usually in both eyes, and often without early symptoms. Steady glucose, blood pressure, and cholesterol control — combined with regular dilated exams — make a real difference in slowing it down.
These conditions share one thing in common: vision lost to them generally cannot be restored. That is why we monitor over time with imaging and visual field testing — so we can begin treatment, or refer you to an ophthalmologist, before damage becomes noticeable.
