The best in cataract surgery in smithtown new york in long island

At North Shore Eye Care in Smithtown New York in Long Island, we have three board certified cataract surgeons and cataract doctors.  Dr. Jeffrey Martin and dr. Larry Zweibel have been voted Top Doctors in the New York Metro Area and Dr. John Mauro has been selected as a Patient Choice.  A cataract is a clouding of the crystalline lens of the eye that occurs as we age.  When the cataract is severe enough, we talk to our patients about cataract surgery.  Although our eye doctors perform among the most cataract surgery procedures in comparison to other long island eye care practices, the final decision for cataract surgery belongs to our patients.  When cataract surgery is indicated, we instruct our patients that they are able to remain in their own clothes and the surgery is done at a surgery center, not a hospital.  We give IV sedation for relaxation and eye drops for anesthesia of the eye.  There are no needles, stitches, or even an eye patch after the cataract surgery.  Our patients see right away and are able to take their important postoperative drops right away.  North Shore Eye Care has been named a National Crystalens Center of Excellence by Bausch and Lomb.

There are several intraocular implant choices that will be reviewed by our eye doctors.   The advanced technology implants like the accommodating lens, Crystalens, and the multifocal implants, Restor, Rezoom, Tecnis Multifocal are wonderful additions to our cache of implants and many of our patients benefit from them.  The idea behind the premium implants is that our patients will have less dependence on glasses or contact lenses.  They are able to see with no glasses for far or near in many cases.
