Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
It’s never too early to have your eyesight examined and your health evaluated. If you’re experiencing blurred central vision, trouble with blurred objects at a distance or up close, eye irritation and redness, consistent eye strain and headaches, spots in your vision, or extreme light sensitivity, you may be at risk of eye diseases such as AMD(Age-Related Macular Degeneration), cataracts, or glaucoma. We offer corrective treatments that can resolve these issues quickly and painlessly. Whether you’re suffering from a bacterial infection, a genetic disorder, or simply need prescription lenses, we’ll ensure your eyesight is restored. Contact our office in Chicago today for more information.
Ophthalmology
We are looking for an experienced Medical Biller with at least 3 to 5 years experience in ophthalmology. Experience with NextGen is a plus. Credentialing experience a plus. This full-time position is looking for a dynamic and enthusiastic person to take charge of the medical billing department.
Macular Degeneration
Did you know over 200 million people worldwide suffer from some form of eye disease? All too often patients suffer needlessly or risk losing their eyesight entirely when avoiding regular eye exams. Clearly, procrastination only causes more problems. Our comprehensive exams will not only detect subnormal visual acuity and major vision problems, but they can also give you a clear idea of your eye’s total health, from your eye muscle strength to spotting the onset of debilitating eye diseases like cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. When you visit Gerstein Eye Institute, we’ll get to know your medical history, test your visual capacity, diagnose any visual issue or discomfort, and offer affordable and effective solutions. We specialize in ocular products and procedures, and we accept most vision insurance plans. We have over 50 years of experience in the field, we’re the skilled medical professionals you can trust.
Laser Eye Surgery
Over the past several decades, LASIK has become a popular choice for permanent vision correction, since it can provide excellent results with a very short treatment process. Undergoing LASIK surgery may eliminate or greatly reduce your need for contact lenses or prescription eyeglasses, which can provide incredible freedom in your day-to-day activities. To get to know the LASIK procedure before your consultation with Chicago’s Gerstein Eye Institute, read through the LASIK FAQs covered below.
Cataracts
Though some people are genetically predisposed to developing cataracts, there are also many controllable risk factors. The best way to prevent the development of cataracts is to be aware of your potential risk.
Cataract Surgery
One of the most common problems that can affect your vision in the aging process is cataracts, which affect the lenses of the eyes that help you focus and see clearly. In addition to blurred vision, cataracts can cause you to see halos of light and have difficulty seeing at night. While the lens of the eye cannot be repaired once cataracts develop, lenses can be removed and replaced with specialized intraocular lenses that may actually enhance your vision so that it is even better than before the cataracts formed. If you have cataracts and are considering cataract surgery, Gerstein Eye Institute is a leader in surgical eye care where you can find the most advanced surgical solutions to improve your vision. Here’s a look at some of the most common questions we hear about cataract surgery to help you plan your treatment.
Eye Exam
Keeping your vision quality intact doesn’t require cumbersome eyeglasses. With today’s latest contact lens technology, you can enjoy the active lifestyle you’re used to while having the benefit of clear vision and an unobstructed view. We offer a wide range of top-quality contact lenses that are customized to fit comfortably on your eye and require little-to-no cleaning and minimal care. We’ll ensure you feel completely at ease during your eye exam and fitting, and we’re happy to answer all of your questions or accommodate any special requests. Contact Gerstein Eye Institute now for more information on our exceptional contact lens collection.
