Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
Our medical management team will work with you and your insurance company to devise the best treatment plan for glaucoma. Whether we prescribe eye drops, laser treatment procedures, or surgery, our intended goal is to decrease eye pressure and, thereby, protect the optic nerve.
Ophthalmology
"The approval of Eylea offers a much needed new treatment option for patients with wet AMD," said the chair of the steering committee for the phase 3 trial, Jeffrey Heier, M.D., also a clinical ophthalmologist and retinal specialist at Ophthalmic Consultants of Boston and Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology at Tufts School of Medicine. "Eylea offers the potential of achieving the efficacy we've come to expect from current anti-VEGF agents, but with less frequent injections and no monitoring requirements. This may reduce the need for costly and time-consuming monthly office visits for patients and their caregivers." (https://www.macular.org/eylea-injection-treatment)
Macular Degeneration
Avastin® is a drug that is injected into the eye to slow vision loss in people who have Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD).
Laser Eye Surgery
You've probably heard about LASIK, or laser eye surgery, and wonder if it's a way you could reduce your dependency on glasses or contact lenses, or stop wearing them once and for all. But is LASIK right for you?
Cataracts
Astigmatism is common condition that occurs when the natural surface and curvature of the eye is misshapen. If you have cataracts and astigmatism, you’ve probably worn glasses for a long time. Thankfully though, due to today’s technology, there are options for people who wish to be rid of their glasses for distance vision. With Toric Lenses you can treat both astigmatism and cataracts at once. Toric Lenses offer patients the best possible chance to see clearly in the distance without the aid of glasses.
Cataract Surgery
Before intraocular lenses were created, people had to wear extremely thick glasses or specialized contact lenses following cataract surgery. Now, with lens replacement surgery, there are several different choices presented to people who want to reduce or eliminate their need for glasses. The standard for lens replacement surgery are Monofocal Lenses, which give the patient the option of having their lenses set to either distance, intermediate, or near vision and wearing glasses to supplement the unaffected distance. Most patients choose to have their lens replacement surgery remedy their vision at a distance and then wear reading glasses for near vision activities.
Eye Exam
Eye care is critical, which means regularly scheduling eye exams is a necessity. During an eye exam at Greenwood Eye Clinic, we will do more than just determine the right prescription for your eyeglasses or contact lenses. We perform a comprehensive exam, checking for common eye diseases and ailments that could potentially lead to vision loss in the future. We will also evaluate your eyes as an indicator of your overall health. Many people wait until they notice a change in their vision before scheduling an eye exam, which is not advised for two main reasons. First, many eye problems are silent, meaning they don’t start showing symptoms until the ailment has been present for some time. Second and more importantly, eye exams can shine a light on a multitude of different health issues, many of which don’t even involve the eye. Eye doctors are often the first healthcare professionals to detect chronic systemic diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure or cholesterol. Eye exams have even led to the discovery of issues as severe as brain tumors. Don’t wait until you notice a change in your vision. We implore you to schedule an eye exam regularly regardless of your age or health.
