Glaucoma is often called the "silent thief of sight" because it typically has no early warning signs. Regular comprehensive eye exams are crucial for early detection. Dr. Brown uses advanced diagnostic technology to measure eye pressure, assess the optic nerve, and monitor visual field changes.
If glaucoma is detected, we develop a personalized treatment plan that may include prescription eye drops, laser therapy referrals, or surgical consultation. Regular monitoring ensures your treatment is working effectively to preserve your vision.
If you have diabetes, you're at increased risk for diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema, cataracts, and glaucoma. Essential Vision Care provides specialized diabetic eye exams that include detailed retinal imaging and comprehensive evaluation of blood vessel health in your eyes.
Early detection is critical—diabetic eye disease can be treated successfully if caught early. We recommend annual comprehensive eye exams for all diabetic patients, or more frequently if changes are detected. We work closely with your primary care physician and endocrinologist to coordinate your overall diabetes care.
Cataracts are a natural part of aging, causing clouding of the eye's lens and gradual vision decline. During your comprehensive exam, Dr. Brown evaluates the health and clarity of your lens and monitors any cataract development over time.
When cataracts begin to interfere with your daily activities, we'll discuss surgical options and provide referrals to trusted ophthalmologic surgeons. We provide complete pre-operative evaluations and post-operative care, ensuring a smooth surgical experience and optimal visual outcomes.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss in adults over 50. It affects the macula, the part of the retina responsible for sharp central vision needed for reading, driving, and recognizing faces.
We use advanced retinal imaging to detect early signs of AMD and monitor its progression. While there's no cure, early detection allows us to implement strategies to slow progression, including nutritional supplements, lifestyle modifications, and treatment referrals when appropriate. We also provide low vision rehabilitation resources to help you maintain independence.
Managing eye disease requires expertise, advanced technology, and a commitment to ongoing care. Dr. Brown's extensive experience and leadership in the optometric community ensures you receive the highest standard of care. We take the time to thoroughly explain your condition, answer your questions, and develop a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
Our investment in the latest diagnostic technology allows us to detect eye diseases earlier and monitor them more precisely. Most importantly, we're committed to building long-term relationships with our patients, providing consistent, compassionate care throughout your treatment journey.
