Intravitreal Injections

Anti-VEGF, Corticosteroids, Antimicrobials

An ocular injection can be a scary thought, however there are some diseases of the eye, such as Wet Age Related Macular Degeneration, Diabetic Retinopathy, Retinal Vein Occlusion related macular edema, among others,  that may require specialized treatment with medication delivered to the inside of the eye.  We make it our utmost priority to put you at ease by explaining the step by step process and tailor our treatment to your needs.

Laser

Pan-retinal and Focal Photocoagulation, Micropulse Laser, Laser Retinopexy

Lasers are used for many conditions in ophthalmology.  Laser Photocoagulation is used in the treatment of several retinal vascular diseases such as Diabetic Retinopathy, Diabetic Retinal Edema, Retinal Vein Occlusion, and several other conditions.  We also employ the latest technology with Micropulse subthreshold laser for certain macular conditions.  Lastly, we can use laser retinopexy treatments to prevent retinal detachments by treating retinal tears and holes so they don’t progress.  Our goal is to provide you with the best treatment options and the use of lasers oftentimes help stop progression of certain diseases before they require additional treatments or surgery.

Vitrectomy

Retinal Detachments, Vitreous Hemorrhage, Macular Holes, Epiretinal Membranes

Vitrectomy surgery is one of the most common retinal surgeries.  Micro-instruments are used to access the intraocular space and often are used to remove the vitreous which can cause traction and then to fix retinal detachments or vitreous hemorrhages.  In other conditions, after the vitreous is removed, removal of other membranes in the posterior parts of the eye can help treat certain diseases like Macular Holes and Epiretinal Membranes.

Scleral Buckle Surgery

Retinal Detachments

Occasionally, in certain patients, the use of a scleral buckle is used to support the eye from the exterior to help in the successful treatment of retinal detachments.  This can be done primarily or in conjunction with a vitrectomy surgery and is done in an operating room setting.

Intraocular Lens Repositioning

Dislocated Intraocular Lens or Secondary Lens Implantation

Very uncommonly, after cataract surgery, the intraocular lenses that are placed can become loose or dislocated and may need to be re-fixated.  Occasionally, there are medical reasons that may necessitate removal of a lens with or without reimplantation.  We specialize in both these procedures and are able to provide the proper correction and procedure in conjunction with your primary ophthalmologist.  Oftentimes, a vitrectomy is also performed at the time of lens refixation or implantation to facilitate the procedure and prevent other complications.

Amsler Grid

The Amsler Grid is a simple yet powerful tool used to detect changes in your central vision. It is especially helpful for monitoring conditions like macular degeneration and other retinal diseases that affect the macula.

 

By using the Amsler Grid regularly at home, you can track any changes in your vision and report them early to your eye care provider. If you notice wavy lines, blurred areas, or missing spots, contact us promptly.
