Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a disease that occurs when there is damage to the optic nerve of the eye. The optic nerve is an extremely sensitive and sophisticated structure that carries all of the eye’s visual images to the brain for processing. Left untreated, glaucoma can cause vision deterioration and even blindness. A number of conditions, including excess pressure within the eye, may contribute to this potentially devastating disease.

Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a disease that occurs when there is damage to the optic nerve of the eye.

Left untreated, glaucoma can cause vision deterioration and even blindness. A number of conditions, including excess pressure within the eye, may contribute to this potentially devastating disease.
Macular Degeneration
Macular degeneration is a condition best described as a loss of central vision: when you look straight ahead, objects directly in front of your eyes look blurry, while your peripheral vision stays clear. Age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) occurs when the light-sensing cells of the macula, a portion of the retina, cease to perform properly. ARMD occurs most often in people age 60 or older. Other, hereditary forms of macular degeneration can occur in children and young adults, although these cases are much rarer.
Laser Eye Surgery
When you have iLASIK at the Huntsville Laser Center, our experienced LASIK surgeon, William Mitchell, M.D., will base your treatment on specific measurements that will be taken during our extensive pre-operative dilated examination. iLASIK introduces a new level of accuracy to the laser vision correction process.
Cataracts
Most everyone age 60 or older will be affected by cataracts. This extremely common eye disorder occurs when the natural proteins within the eye’s lens begin to clump together, distorting vision. “Cloudy” and “hazy” are terms often used to describe vision when a cataract is present. When cataracts first become noticeable, many people compensate by using brighter light, seeking large-print materials, or wearing stronger lenses. As time passes, however, surgical correction becomes necessary to maintain sight and handle everyday tasks such as reading and driving.
Cataract Surgery
There’s no need to struggle with blurry vision caused by cataracts. Maynor & Mitchell Eye Center is a leader in cataract surgery with implantable/ intraocular lenses (IOLs). Today’s new IOLs – Crystalens® and ReSTOR® – are better than ever, giving cataract patients the clear vision they need and deserve. They can also be used to improve age-related vision loss (presbyopia).
Eye Exam
Glaucoma is particularly insidious because it often begins without any symptoms. The only way to know if your eyes are affected by glaucoma is to have a diagnostic eye exam performed regularly, beginning at age 35. Although there is no known cure for glaucoma, early detection and treatment can greatly slow the progression of the disease.

Diabetes Care
Diabetic Retinopathy
Did you know that the uncontrolled blood sugar levels associated with diabetes can affect the eyes? Diabetic and pre-diabetic patients are at risk for a condition called diabetic retinopathy, in which the blood vessels in the eyes become damaged. These patients are at risk for vision loss and, eventually, blindness.

Ultrasound
Laser cataract surgery — also called Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery is an advanced type of cataract surgery that uses femtosecond laser technology to bring a new level of precision and accuracy to cataract surgery. The laser replaces the hand-held surgical tools to perform some of the most important steps of the procedure. These steps include making the corneal incisions, creating an anterior capsulotomy and fragmenting the lens and cataract. During laser cataract surgery, a camera/ultrasound imaging device is placed over your eye to map its surface and gather information about the lens. The detailed information allows the surgeon to customize an individualized treatment plan for each patient. Femtosecond lasers have been used for over twenty years to perform LASIK. The added precision, accuracy and reproducibility of each of these steps, when performed with a laser, potentially can reduce certain risks and improve visual outcomes of cataract surgery.
