Cataract surgery at North Shore eye care

When it comes to cataract surgery, North Shore eye care in smithtown new york is a leader in the field.  Our three board certified cataract surgeons and eye doctors do the very best in technique and technology.  Dr. Jeffrey Martin, Dr. Larry Zweibel and Dr. John Mauro use a small incision technique without stitches, an eye patch or needles around the eyes.  Our cataract surgery lasts a few minutes and our patients return to their home the very same day.  Cataract patients at our smithtown new york office are able to stay in their own clothes and receive IV sedation for comfort.  There is no pain or discomfort in most cases.  Because we use just eye drops for anesthesia, our patients are able to take their eye drops immediately following surgery to decrease inflammation and the risk of infection.  In order to improve compliance and make the postoperative course easier for our patients, our eye doctors recently introduced twice a day dosing on all drops following cataract surgery.  Our patients have been thrilled with the decrease number of drops in the drop regimen.

In long island new york, we see patients from smithtown, nesconset, saint james, islip, islandia, hauppauge, lake grove, bohemia, ronkonkoma, holtsville, holbrook, sayville, and many other towns.
