Frequently Asked Questions

What are the most common corneal conditions you treat?

We treat a range of corneal conditions including keratoconus, corneal dystrophies such as Fuchs’ dystrophy, and keratitis (corneal inflammation or infection). Early detection and treatment are key to protecting your long-term vision.

What symptoms suggest I may have a corneal problem?

Common signs include blurry or distorted vision, increased light sensitivity, eye redness, persistent irritation, or the sense that something is in your eye. If you’re experiencing any of these, a corneal evaluation is recommended.

Is corneal disease treatable without surgery?

Many corneal conditions can be managed with medications, specialty contact lenses, or other non-surgical approaches. When surgery is needed, we offer advanced options tailored to your specific diagnosis.

What is keratoconus and can it be treated?

Keratoconus is a progressive condition where the cornea gradually thins and bulges into a cone shape, causing distorted vision. We offer several treatment options ranging from specialty contact lenses to corneal cross-linking to slow or halt its progression.

How is corneal health monitored over time?

We use advanced diagnostic imaging to map and measure the cornea in detail. Regular follow-up exams allow us to track any changes and adjust your treatment plan as needed.
