Arthritis
Your body may not be producing an adequate quantity of tears. Dry eye syndrome often increases with age as tear production slows. For women, this is especially true after menopause. Dry eyes are associated with other problems like Sjögren's syndrome, which can cause dry eyes along with dry mouth and arthritis. Certain conditions such as diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, scleroderma, thyroid disorders, and Parkinson's disease may also decrease tear production.

Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a disease of the optic nerve, which transmits the images you see from the eye to the brain. The optic nerve is made up of many nerve fibers (like an electric cable with its numerous wires). Glaucoma damages nerve fibers, which can cause blind spots and vision loss.
Ophthalmology
Though the practice has been used since 1940, the use of amniotic membrane in ophthalmology did not become popular until 1995. Healthy mothers who undergo a cesarean section have the option of donating the placenta, which is then screened and cleaned to be used as an organic gauze and graft material. A thin, clear sheet of amniotic tissue is then attached to the surface of the eye with fibrin glue.
Macular Degeneration
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the most common causes of poor vision after age 60. AMD is a deterioration or breakdown of the macula. The macula is a small area at the center of the retina in the back of the eye that allows us to see fine details clearly and perform activities such as reading and driving.
Laser Eye Surgery
Note: If you recently had laser eye surgery, you may experience dry eyes for up to 2 weeks. If symptoms persist, please visit us.
Cataracts
Our team of doctors is available to provide comprehensive eye services - from refractions for eyeglasses or contacts and dilated exams to fully check the retina and vessels, to cataract removal surgery and neuro-ophthalmologic surgeries.
Cataract Surgery
An IOL, or intraocular lens, is used to replace the eye's natural film, usually following cataract surgery. Since the IOL's invention in 1949, several improvements have been made to make the device more comfortable and useful. These new devices, called premium IOLs, have unique abilities. Some take on the natural shape of an eye lens, or replace the vision-correcting ability of eyeglasses, or both.
Eye Exam
Your eyes are an essential, but often overlooked, part of your overall health - regular eye exams are important to maintain vision and total health. Visit your eye care professional for a comprehensive eye exam which includes eye muscle tests, glaucoma testing, pupil dilation, and other examinations or tests when indicated.

Epilepsy
When ptosis develops quickly and without a known cause, it may be a sign of a neurological disorder such as epilepsy or Parkinson's disease. If you or a loved one develop ptosis without a known cause, please visit a doctor in order to catch symptoms early.

Plastic Surgeons

Botox
Botulinum toxin, or "Botox", is an effective treatment for Hemifacial Spasm. The doctor injects small amounts of Botox under the skin at each affected area. It may take several days for the medication to be fully effective - relaxing and weakening the facial muscles and preventing spasms. Effects typically last for about three months and then injections must be repeated to keep spasms at bay. There are typically few side effects, but sometimes minor bruising at the incision sites and temporary lid drooping or double vision may occur.
Eyelid Surgery
There may be medical or cosmetic side effects to eyelid surgery. Minor complications occur once in every 600 cases, most often swelling or redness under the eyes that can be corrected with further surgery. In rare instances, there may be noticeable scarring or undesired aesthetic changes. Consult with a specialist on possible outcomes before scheduling your blepharoplasty.
Blepharoplasty
As we age, our eyelids feel and look heavier. Sagging or puffy skin may develop above or below the eye, creating the illusion of tiredness. Blepharoplasty reverses this effect, transforming the face to create a younger appearance.
Cosmetic Surgery
Not just a cosmetic surgery, blepharoplasty also helps to restore peripheral vision as the area around the eye opens up. In more serious cases, the excess tissue above the eye makes it difficult or impossible to open the eyes completely. Sagging below the eye may also cause dry eyes as it exposes living tissue to the air.
