The Technology Behind
World-Class Eye Care

Diagnostic Imaging

From high-resolution retinal scans to widefield imaging and advanced angiography, our diagnostic suite captures a complete picture of your eye health, often before symptoms appear.

CIRRUS 5000 OCT

High-resolution OCT imaging captures detailed cross-sections of the retina, RNFL thickness measurements, ganglion cell analysis, and optic nerve head mapping. Essential for early detection and monitoring of glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic eye disease.

Heidelberg SPECTRALIS

Multimodal imaging platform with OCT-Angiography and enhanced depth imaging. Images retinal and choroidal vasculature without dye injection, providing detailed evaluation for diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and retinal vein occlusion.

Optomap Ultra-Widefield

Captures up to 200 degrees of the retina in a single image, often reducing the need for dilating drops while providing a permanent digital record for tracking changes over time. Your doctor may still recommend dilation when a more detailed evaluation is needed.

Fluorescein & ICG Angiography

Photographs blood flow through the retina using safe injectable dyes to reveal leaking or blocked vessels caused by diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and retinal vein occlusions. ICG angiography adds deeper choroidal imaging for complex retinal conditions. The dye may temporarily tint the skin yellow-orange for up to 48 hours.

A/B-Scan Ultrasonography

Uses high-frequency sound waves to image the interior of the eye when dense cataracts or other opacities block the view. Essential for evaluating retinal detachments, tumors, and other posterior segment conditions that cannot be assessed with optical imaging alone.

Visual Field Analyzer

Monitors glaucoma progression with precision by detecting subtle losses in peripheral and central vision. All visual field data is tracked longitudinally so your doctor can detect changes over time and adjust treatment accordingly.

Glaucoma Diagnosis & Treatment

Glaucoma often has no symptoms until vision is permanently lost. Our diagnostic and treatment technology allows us to detect the disease early and manage it effectively, in many cases reducing or eliminating the need for daily eye drops.

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT)

A gentle laser treatment that improves the eye's natural drainage to lower intraocular pressure. Supported by the landmark LiGHT trial, SLT can be offered as a first-line treatment for open-angle glaucoma, potentially reducing or eliminating the need for daily eye drops.

Laser Peripheral Iridotomy (LPI)

Creates a tiny opening in the iris to improve fluid circulation within the eye. This quick, in-office laser procedure is essential for managing narrow-angle and angle-closure glaucoma, helping to prevent dangerous pressure spikes.

Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS)

Our surgeons perform a variety of minimally invasive glaucoma procedures, including iStent, Hydrus, and OMNI, often at the time of cataract surgery. These tiny, precision-placed implants or micro-incisions lower eye pressure with faster recovery and fewer complications than traditional surgery.

Refractive & LASIK Suite

The iDesign maps your vision in a single 3-second scan, and your surgeon selects either the VisuMax or iFS femtosecond laser based on which is best suited to your corneal anatomy, delivering a fully customized, blade-free treatment.

iDesign Refractive Studio

Captures over 1,250 wavefront data points plus topography, autorefraction, and pupillometry in a single 3-second scan, creating the most detailed map available for custom LASIK planning.

VISX Star S4 Excimer Laser

A time-tested excimer laser with a safety record spanning millions of procedures worldwide. Reshapes the cornea with exceptional precision during LASIK and PRK, using advanced eye-tracking to follow even the smallest eye movements.

ZEISS VisuMax Femtosecond Laser

Creates ultra-precise corneal flaps for LASIK and enables minimally invasive SMILE procedures, all without the use of a blade. The gentle curved contact interface improves patient comfort and supports faster visual recovery.

iFS Advanced Femtosecond Laser

Delivers fast, blade-free corneal flap creation with customizable flap dimensions and depth, giving your surgeon greater precision and control for a LASIK procedure tailored to your individual corneal anatomy.

Cornea

From surface mapping and endothelial cell analysis to FDA-approved cross-linking treatment, our cornea technologies support early detection, surgical planning, and the preservation of corneal integrity.

Cornea 550 Topographer

Uses 22-ring Placido disc technology to map over 22,000 points on the corneal surface, vital for diagnosing keratoconus, evaluating irregular astigmatism, planning refractive surgery, and achieving a proper contact lens fit.

SP-1P Specular Microscope

Evaluates corneal endothelial cell density and morphology, essential for pre-surgical planning, monitoring corneal transplants, and assessing conditions like Fuchs dystrophy that affect the inner corneal layer.

iLink Corneal Cross-Linking

An FDA-approved cross-linking system using Photrexa riboflavin drops and KXL UV light to strengthen corneal collagen and slow or halt the progression of keratoconus and other corneal ectatic conditions.

Cataract Surgery

From precision biometry and intraoperative verification to femtosecond laser-assisted techniques and a full portfolio of premium lens implants, every step of your cataract procedure is guided by advanced technology tailored to your eyes.

IOLMaster 700

Uses swept-source OCT technology and total keratometry to measure the eye with exceptional accuracy, ensuring the best implant lens choice for cataract surgery and other refractive procedures.

LENSTAR Biometer

Analyzes multiple eye structures in one scan, providing a second independent dataset that your surgeon cross-references with the IOLMaster to reduce the risk of refractive surprise after cataract surgery.

ORA Intraoperative Aberrometry

Provides real-time lens power confirmation during cataract surgery, allowing your surgeon to verify and fine-tune the implant selection while you are still on the operating table for the most accurate outcome.

Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery

Uses femtosecond laser precision to create the incision, perform the capsulotomy, and soften the lens before removal, offering a bladeless approach with greater accuracy and reproducibility, especially for patients receiving premium implants.

Premium IOL Portfolio

Our surgeons offer the Light Adjustable Lens for post-surgical fine-tuning, AcrySof PanOptix and Vivity for extended range of vision, and the Odyssey for seamless near-to-distance clarity, each selected to match your lifestyle and visual goals.

Dry Eye Diagnosis & Treatment

TearLab and InflammaDry provide objective diagnostics, while LipiView visualizes gland structure. Together they pinpoint your specific type of dry eye so treatment is targeted, not guesswork.

TearLab

Measures tear osmolarity with a tiny, painless sample to objectively confirm a dry eye diagnosis, gauge severity, and track your response to treatment over time so adjustments can be made early.

InflammaDry

A quick, painless in-office test that detects elevated MMP-9 levels, telling us in minutes whether inflammation is driving your dry eye symptoms so we can choose the most effective treatment from the start.

LipiView

Captures a detailed image of your tear film and meibomian glands, giving your doctor the data needed to pinpoint the exact cause of dry eye symptoms.

LipiFlow

Applies controlled heat and gentle pressure to unblock clogged meibomian glands, restoring the natural oil layer of your tears in a comfortable in-office session. Most patients notice improvement within several weeks.

Lumenis IPL

Intense pulsed light therapy targets inflammation and abnormal blood vessels along the eyelids, improving meibomian gland function and reducing chronic dry eye over a series of quick in-office treatments. Candidacy is determined during your consultation.

Retina Treatment

Our retina specialists use a combination of in-office injections, laser therapy, and light-activated treatments to manage conditions that threaten central and peripheral vision.

Intravitreal Injections (Anti-VEGF Therapy)

Anti-VEGF medications are injected directly into the eye to stop abnormal blood vessel growth and reduce fluid leakage in conditions such as wet AMD and diabetic macular edema. Numbing drops ensure comfort, and treatment schedules are personalized to protect your vision.

Retinal Photocoagulation Laser

Seals leaking blood vessels and repairs retinal tears using focused laser energy, helping preserve vision in patients with diabetic retinopathy, retinal tears, and other vascular conditions.

Photodynamic Therapy

Combines a light-sensitive medication with a low-power laser to selectively destroy abnormal blood vessels beneath the retina while leaving healthy tissue intact, used to treat certain forms of macular degeneration.
