A lack of visual acuity can severely impact your life. If you’re exhausted from years of wearing glasses or contact lenses, you might be eligible for a vision correction procedure such as LASIK, PRK or no-stitch cataract surgery. In a complimentary consultation, one of our board-certified ophthalmologists will give you a complete overview of your options for better sight.
The eye is a critical and complex organ. Accidents can occur, and physical or chemical injury to the eye can be a serious threat to vision if not treated appropriately and in a timely fashion. If you experience any of the following, seek medical attention immediately: sudden loss of vision, chemicals in one or both eyes, severe eye pain or marked redness, or severe impact to the eye.
