Our team is dedicated to delivering compassionate, innovative care for patients and comprehensive training for residents in the field of ophthalmology. We diagnose, manage and treat the full spectrum of common glaucoma disorders, which affect eye pressure and cause damage to the optic nerve, including:
- Open-angle glaucoma
- Angle-closure glaucoma
- Neovascular glaucoma
- Congenital glaucoma
- Uveitic glaucoma
- Traumatic glaucoma
Treating patients with glaucoma combines acute, chronic and urgent care and requires a keen attention to detail. We pride ourselves in providing a variety of diagnostic and treatment options for our patients and comprehensive glaucoma training for our residents.
