Cataract surgery... you have a choice

When deciding to have cataract surgery, it is important to choose the right cataract surgeon.  There are many aspects when deciding on your eye surgeon.  Experience is important.  The cataract specialist should perform many cataract operations each year and use expert techniques as well as technology.  Your surgeon should be proficient in all of the latest intraocular lenses and have knowledge of what is cutting edge in the field of ophthalmology.  You should also know that you are going to see your cataract surgeon pre and post-operatively for adequate follow-up and continuity of care.

At North Shore eye care in Smithtown New York in long island, we have three board certified cataract surgeons in Dr. John Mauro, Dr. Jeffrey Martin, and Dr. Larry Zweibel.  We do many cataract surgical procedures each year and are one of the leaders in cataract treatment in the region.  We use small incisions without stitches or even an eye patch following surgery and the usual surgical time is less than 10 minutes.  Our eye specialists are experts in all of the newest intraocular lenses including accommodating and multifocal technology such as Crystalens, Tecnis Multifocal, Restor, and Acrysof Toric.  At our suffolk county eye care practice, we see our pre and post-operative patients ourselves and our eye doctors pride ourselves on great continuity of care and knowing our patients.  Dr. Jeff Martin and Dr. Larry Zweibel have been included in Top Doctors: New York Metro Area by Castle Connolly for the last several years and have been featured in Newsday for that honor.  We are a Crystalens National Center of Excellence and Dr. John Mauro has been named as a "Patient Choice" by American Registry.
