Management of Ocular Diseases

PEC has a policy that all staff members must be up-to-date on the latest technology and methods so that your visit is as comfortable and effective as possible. As optometric technology changes, it becomes even more important to choose an eye doctor who has all the right optometry skills and keeps up with the latest developments in eye care.

With the help of new technology, we can diagnose and treat diseases like Glaucoma, Macular Degeneration, and Cataracts with more accuracy. When a problem is found earlier and more accurately, it can be treated faster and the results are better. We are taking a strong stand against diseases that were hard to treat in the past. There have been a lot of improvements in how to treat these illnesses.

  • Cataracts are a common cause of vision loss after age 55. Learn more about recognizing cataracts symptoms, protecting your eyes and understanding cataract surgery.
  • Glaucoma is a condition that causes damage to your eye’s optic nerve and gets worse over time, so nipping it in the bud will always be better for the person being tested.
  • The macula is the portion of the retina which provides sharp, central vision, and is involved in processing the fine details of the image. The breakdown of the macula is a disease called macular degeneration.
  • Diabetes and vision go hand in hand. If you have diabetes, you need to know that having this systemic disease puts you at greater risk for developing vision problems.
