Cataract care in long island new york
At North Shore eye care in smithtown new york in long island, cataract surgery is our specialty. Our three board certified cataract surgeons are here to help you with all your visual needs. We see patients with cataracts every day and often the early symptoms of cataract do not require surgery. These symptoms usually become worse with time. In our eye care facility, our eye doctors do not decide for the patients when they need cataract surgery. Our patients are usually very comfortable in deciding when the cataract is severe enough to warrant cataract surgery. Our cataract surgeons let our patients know that they need surgery when the symptoms of cataract interfere with their quality of life.
Our eye doctors specialize in small incision cataract surgery without the use of stitches, an eye patch or needles around the eyes. Cataract surgery usually takes a few minutes and our patients return to the comfort of their home the very same day. We routinely use premium implant lenses after cataract removal that are designed to reduce the need for glasses and contact lenses following surgery. For many patients, standard intraocular lenses are what they want and they continue to wear glasses. Our cataract specialists help you to make a decision on whats best for you.
