Ophthalmology Consultants
The Center for LASIK provides a wide range of eye care services
using state of the art technology and professional care. Our
specialized services include:
Comprehensive Eye Examinations
and Medical Diagnosis of Adult Eye Disorders
In our state-of-the-art office,
our board certified eye doctors will give you a complete exam
checking for cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. If
needed, a prescription will be given to you for glasses.
Small Incision No-Stitch Cataract
Surgery With Lens Implants
A cataract is a loss of transparency,
or clouding, of the normally clear lens of the eye. When the
lens gets cloudy enough to obstruct vision, glasses or contact
lenses may not help. We recommend cataract surgery when your
vision interferes with your lifestyle. Cataract surgery is a
very successful operation. One and a half million people have
this procedure every year. We use the most modern techniques
of phacoemulsification and small incision surgery coupled with
laser membrane lyses. We remove the lens through a small incision
and replace it with a state-of-the-art lens implant. Our surgical
techniques enable our patients to resume most normal activities
quickly. Our doctors use the latest in intraocular lens technology
including the new multifocal (built in bifocal) ARRAY implant
and the Starr Toric implant for patients with astigmatism.
Cosmetic and Reconstructive
Eye-Plastic Surgery
Many patients come to our doctors
for procedures to improve their appearance. Removing baggy or
droopy eyelid skin "Blepharoplasty" can improve your
vision as well as improve your looks and self image. Cosmetic
blemishes or scars on the eyelids or face can be removed easily
in our office surgical suite. Many patients are referred for
reconstructive procedures following skin cancer removal or traumatic
injuries. Tearing problems can also be helped.
Corneal Disease and Transplant
Surgery
Our cornea specialist has had
advanced training in the treatment of corneal diseases and in
performing cornea transplants. Patients who's vision is compromised
by clouding or scaring of the cornea can be helped through the
very successful transplant of donor corneal tissue.
Glaucoma Diagnosis and Treatment
Glaucoma is a condition in which
vision is lost due to damage to the optic nerve. Increased pressure
in the eye or poor blood flow to the optic nerve causes this
damage. Glaucoma can cause blind spots to develop and eventually,
if untreated, can restrict your peripheral and eventually your
central vision. Many patients are unaware that they have glaucoma,
because in most cases, there are no symptoms. Our doctors utilize
the Heildelberg Optic Nerve Analyzer system that allows them
to identify glaucoma much earlier than ever before possible.
Advanced medications and new lasers are used to treat glaucoma
with outstanding success.
Botox Injections
Botox, contrary to most beliefs
is not a new drug. Our doctors have been using Botox for functional
and cosmetic problems for over ten years. We have a lot of experience
in treating wrinkles and frown lines as well as facial tics and
habit spasms. Ask about our complimentary Botox consultation.
Come see if Botox could improve your appearance.
Emergency Eye Care
Our doctors often care for patients
with sight threatening eye emergencies. Patients with these problems
are referred by our local emergency rooms, community doctors,
or can walk in to the office. You can rest assured that if you
are ever the one with the acute problem you will be cared for
immediately. Our doctor on emergency call can be reached at 954-977-8770.
Contact lens fitting
Our staff Optometrist is a specialist
in fitting contact lenses. If you have ever wanted to try contacts
please ask our staff to assist you with a contact lens fitting
evaluation. If you are a long standing contact lens wearer and
would like to get your lenses updated please call our office
and ask for an appointment with our optometrist.
Eyeglass prescriptions
If prescription glasses are necessary
for you to see and you are not a good candidate for refractive
surgery, our doctors will prescribe them for you. The next time
you need new glasses let our doctors help you achieve the best
vision possible.
Permanent Eye Make-Up
Have you ever wished you didn't
have to spend half an hour putting on your make-up? Does your
eyeliner run because of occasional tearing or an accidental rub?
Permanent Make-up is available at Ophthalmology Consultants The
Center For LASIK. You can have permanent brows, upper and lower
eyeliner, and even lip outlines. Ask about how permanent Make-up
can help you look your best all the time without all the effort
and expense.
