Once the natural lenses inside the eye begins to lose its transparency and causes the vision to become cloudy and hazy it is time to consider cataract removal. During this procedure the cloudy lens is removed and replaced with a lens implant to restore the vision to pre-cataract levels.

Laser Vision Correction
Focusing errors (near and far-sightedness and astigmatism) can be corrected using the Excimer laser with either laser assisted in-situ keratomiluesis (LASIK) or Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK). With our new Excimer laser we are now able to correct near sightedness up to -14 diopters, far-sightedness up to 5 diopters and astigmatism up to 5 diopters.

In some patients the upper eye lid tissue sags and obscures the visual axis making the field of vision reduced. Blepharoplasty removes this excess tissue restoring the field of vision. In some patients the upper lid can also droop and the lid position issue can be addressed during the same surgical procedure.
