Leaders in cataract surgery in long island new york

North Shore eye care in smithtown new york is a leader in cataract surgery in our long island region.  We have three board certified cataract surgeons that are experts at diagnosing and treating cataracts.  A cataract is a natural clouding of the lens of the eye that occurs as we age.  Some feel that cataracts are caused by excessive UV or sun light, smoking, and certain medications, cataracts do occur in all people as they get older.  The symptoms of cataract are blurred vision, sudden changes in eyeglass prescription, glare with oncoming headlights while driving at night, glare with sunlight, and worsening of vision.  At our eye care practice, our cataract specialists tell patients that they are the ones to decide when cataract is significant enough that it should be addressed.  In most cases, our patients know when they need to do something about their worsening vision.  Our eye doctors have the best technology on hand to help diagnose and grade cataract change, but the final decision always rests with our patients.  Because of this, our patients trust us and know that we have their best interests in mind. 

Our eye doctors have been featured in "Top Doctors: New York Metro Area" by Castle Connolly and in Newsday.  North Shore eye care is a National Crystalens Center of Excellence and our eye doctors are speakers for several prominent companies that produce cataract surgery equipment.  If you have a cataract, come in and see what makes North Shore eye care so special.
