Cataract Surgery – Clear Up Cloudy Vision

Cataracts are a very common ailment. In fact, more than half of all Americans over the age of 65 have had, or are currently suffering from, a cataract. Our eye doctors are skilled in cataract surgery and can offer you a complete consultation on the pros and cons of the procedure. If your vision is only mildly blurry, we may be able to help you retain much of your vision through the use of prescription eye wear. Delaying cataract surgery until you are certain it is the right choice for you will in no way injure the eye itself. If the cataract has progressed to the point where its presence is decreasing your quality of life, or if it is positioned in such a way that it may prevent examination or treatment of another eye condition, then cataract surgery may be recommended. Our eye physicians respect that the decision to undergo cataract surgery is a highly individualistic one. If you do decide to undergo surgery, we have the necessary experience and skills to perform your procedure. Our practice has performed many successful cataract surgeries over the years.

If you have already undergone cataract surgery, but are still experiencing blurred vision, you may have a cloudy posterior capsule. The posterior capsule is the part of your lens that is usually left intact after cataract surgery. If it becomes obstructed a simple procedure called a YAG laser capsulotomy may be performed to restore your vision. For a complete patient consultation on a cataract surgery procedure or a post-cataract surgery procedure, please contact the Manhasset Eye Physicians.

Quality Vision for Every Patient

Corrective lens prescriptions must be determined accurately in order to help patients achieve their optimal vision. The ophthalmologists at Manhasset Eye Physicians are committed to helping you find the right corrective lens prescription, which can then be used to purchase contact lenses (available at our practice) and eyeglasses that will help you see clearer and improve day-to-day living.

General Ophthalmology – Prevention and Treatment

The prevention and early detection of eye disorders is crucial to the quality of your vision. Diseases and eye injuries such as glaucoma, retinal detachment, and macular degeneration can be controlled, but once they have done damage to your vision, that damage is largely permanent. For many with a genetic predisposition towards eye disorders or personal vision risk factors such as diabetes or high blood pressure, loss of vision and even blindness are very real threats. The first step to preventing vision loss is to be sure you attend regular eye exams once every two years when you are young, and annually if you are over 45. The Manhasset Eye Physicians have advanced training, high-tech facilities, and the latest equipment for administering the proper treatment, but the first step is always detection and diagnosis.
