Cataract surgery experts in long island new york

At North Shore eye care in Smithtown new york, we have three board certified experts in cataract surgery.  Our cataract surgeons are ready to help you on your journey to clear vision without glasses or contact lenses.  When you arrive at our long island office, you are greeted warmly by our professional staff.  Our certified ophthalmic technicians lead you through a thorough history and work-up and then you are greeted by one of our board certified eye surgeons, Dr. Jeffrey Martin, Dr. Larry Zweibel, or Dr. John Mauro.  The founder of our eye care practice, Dr. Sidney Martin also continues to see patients at our state of the art eye surgical practice.  Once it is determined that you have a cataract and no other pathology leading to vision loss such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy or corneal disease, we go through the steps of cataract surgery with you and also show you a great animated video about the cataract procedure.  We explain how we remove the cloudy lens of your eye which is the cataract  through a small incision without the need for stitches, needles around the eyes or an eye patch.  We also discuss your options when it comes to intraocular lens implants.  There are implants that allow for great distance vision only called monofocals. We also use accommodating and multifocal specialty implants that reduce the need for glasses or contact lenses at all distances.  We also discuss all risks and benefits to fully inform you about the perioperative setting.
