glaucoma

We offer state-of-the-art care for both the diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma. Both offices are equipped with OCT and automated visual field machines to aid in the diagnosis and follow-up of each glaucoma patient. When needed, our doctors can treat glaucoma patients with our in-office Argon laser or perform glaucoma surgery to slow the glaucomatous disease.

Our practice has the latest technology including OCT scans to measure retinal thickness, and fluorescein angiography to evaluate blood flow to the eye – both are helpful in the diagnosis and treatment of macular degeneration patients.

Our doctors are available for consultation to discuss the latest in laser vision correction. We will help in the coordination of your refractive surgery with doctors that we have developed a strong relationship with. This allows patients to have refractive surgeries performed and then to coordinate the postoperative care right here on the Western slope.

Our physicians are well versed in the management and diagnosis of diabetic-related eye disease and ocular complications that are related. When necessary, we perform laser or injection therapy to help with vision-threatening conditions related to diabetes. Our doctors will work to communicate with your primary care physician in coordinating your diabetic care.

eyelid plastic surgery

In addition to removal of skin cancers of the eyelids and face, our surgeons fix entropion and ectropion (turning in or out of the eyelids), droopy eyelids or ptosis, and treatment for excessive tearing, as well as excessive skin of the upper eyelid (blepharoplasty). Many of these procedures can be done in our in-office surgical suite.
