Catalina Eye Care is devoted to safeguarding and restoring the health of your cornea, the eye’s outermost layer, crucial for clear vision.
Our cornea services are centered around the proactive management and treatment of a variety of corneal conditions, recognizing that early detection is key. With advanced diagnostic equipment, our cornea specialists are skilled in identifying the early signs of corneal eye diseases, allowing for timely and effective interventions.
Corneal Health Specialties:
We combine clinical expertise with compassionate care to manage and treat your corneal conditions.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Catalina Eye Care offers Valeda® PBM in Tucson, AZ — the first FDA-authorized red light therapy for early and intermediate dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
EVO ICL is an advanced vision correction procedure designed to reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses. Unlike LASIK, which reshapes the cornea, EVO ICL works by placing a tiny, biocompatible lens inside the eye to correct vision.
