Glaucoma
The term "Glaucoma" describes a number of eye conditions that result in permanent damage to the optic nerve. Generally, glaucoma is thought of as a higher than "normal" intraocular pressure (IOP).
Ophthalmology
Dr. Howard received his undergraduate degree from the State University of New York at Stony Brook. After receiving his medical degree from New York Medical College, he completed a medical internship year at St. Vincent's Medical Center in New York City. He then completed a residency in Ophthalmology at New York University.
Macular Degeneration
The likelihood that you will develop Macular Disease is directly related to your age. Age Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD) is the most common type of macular degeneration. Your risk of developing Macular Degeneration increases as you grow older. The severity of macular degeneration can vary widely from a slight distortion of your central vision to a total loss of your central vision. However, macular degeneration does NOT cause total blindness, as its effects are limited to central vision without affecting peripheral vision.
Laser Eye Surgery
The availability of Laser Eye Surgery ushered in a new way of thinking about vision correction for the millions of people who were nearsighted, farsighted or had astigmatism. Prior to 1995, millions of people in the United States who had common eye problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism really only had two vision correction options: they could wear eyeglasses or contact lenses to correct their vision.
Cataracts
A cataract is a common condition that causes a clouding of the eye's natural lens, and affects millions of people each year, including more than half of all Americans over the age of 65. Cloudiness develops as a result of a buildup of protein in the lens.

Enjoy, you may want to consider cataract surgery to restore your vision. Cataract surgery is the most commonly performed surgical procedure in the US, and can be performed quickly and easily with a
Eye Exam
A general eye exam at Litchfield Hills Eye Physicians will include checking your vision as well as evaluating the health of your eyes. Please make sure that you tell your eye doctor about medications you are taking for any health condition as well as any other conditions that you may have been treated for in the past. They will also want to know whether any member of your family has any history of eye diseases or conditions.

Diabetic Retinopathy
Many patients who have diabetes think of it as a disease whereby the primary problem is difficulty in properly metabolizing glucose. In fact, this is correct. However, the effects of diabetes are more widespread than simply a "sugar problem". In fact, diabetes is a disease that affects the blood vessels throughout the body, thus leading to problems with the circulation to your legs, kidneys, heart, brain and eyes-especially the very small blood vessels of the eye found in the retina. When diabetes begins to affect the small blood vessels in the retina, it is called Diabetic Retinopathy.
