The top cataract doctors in Long Island New York

North Shore eye Care is one of the most progressive eye care and cataract surgery eye practices in Long island new York. North Shore Eye Care located in Smithtown New York in Suffolk county has some of the most state of the art technology and the best board certified eye doctors and eye surgeons. Dr. Jeffrey Martin and Dr. Larry Zweibel have been featured in Top Doctors in the New York Metro Area by Castle Connolly for the last several years and North Shore Eye Care has been named as a National Crystalens Center of Excellence by Bausch and Lomb. Our board certified eye surgeons, Dr. Martin, Dr. Zweibel and Dr. John Mauro, use small incisions and rarely use needles behind the eye, stitches or even an eye patch. There cataract procedure lasts a few minutes and our patients get to stay in their own clothes and go home the very same day within a few hours. We use IV sedation to relax our patients and numbing eye drops so that the patient remains comfortable through the cataract surgery. When a cataract or cloudy lens of the eye is removed, we replace it with an intraocular lens or IOL. There are several types of IOLs including premium IOLs such as accommodating lenses like Crystalens and multifocal lenses like Restor, Rezoom, and Tecnis Multifocal. These premium implants help to reduce or eliminate dependence on glasses or contact lenses and allow our patients to see far and near without glasses or contact lenses. We also use many Acrysof Toric implants that reduce or eliminate astigmatism in patients that desire glasses free vision. With the creation of these premium implants, a laser vision correction enhancement is sometimes necessary. If necessary, we do that at no charge to our patients.
