Laser vision correction has become very popular over the past decade.  The eye doctors and eye surgeons at North Shore eye Care in Smithtown New York in long island have been at the forefront of lasik laser eye surgery during that time.  Our lasik doctors and lasik surgeons use only the best techniques including bladeless custom lasik or ilasik.  With ilasik, our board ceritified eye surgeons use Intralase, a blade free flap laser, to create a flap in the superficial layers of the cornea.  We then use Visx Customvue to do the laser vision correction.  With Customvue, we use a wavescan that creates a custom fingerprint of your vision which then automatically centers and tracks eye movements during the lasik procedure.  We also use iris registration in every case so that the lasik laser eye surgery is placed precisely where it should be.  With this method of Intralasik, the results are the best that they can be.

Cataract Surgery and How to choose your surgeon

March 02, 2010 @ 06:18 PM — by John Mauro

Cataract surgery has been performed at North Shore Eye Care in Smithtown New York on Long Island since Dr. Sidney Martin founded the practice in 1960. Today, North Shore Eye Care is a modern eye care practice that specializes in advanced cataract surgery and laser vision correction. Technology has revolutionized cataract surgery making it a safer, more successful surgery. Dr. Lawrence Zweibel, Dr. Jeffrey Martin and Dr. John Mauro all use state of the art cataract surgery and laser vision correction procedures. In cataract surgery, the cloudy lens of the eye or cataract is removed using phacoemulsification or computer controlled high speed ultrasound through a small incision that seals without stitches. No eye patch is necessary in most cases and needles around the eye are also not necessary. Our patients return home the very same day and experience no pain in most cases. Our board certified eye doctors and eye surgeons, Dr. Zweibel, Dr. Martin, and Dr. Mauro all specialize in intraocular implant technology including accommodating lenses like the Crystalens and the Crystalens HD. We also use multifocal implants like the Restor and the Tecnis multifocal lens. The Acrysof Toric implant reduces or eliminates astigmatism in most cases and our patients with these premium implants are able to see well without the need of glasses or contact lenses. 

 

How do I find a good eye surgeon?  It is important when finding a cataract surgeon to look at several things. The cataract surgeon should specialize in cataract surgery and perform many cataract surgery operations each year. The cataract surgeon should be current in his/her knowledge and be using the latest and best techniques. A patient should make sure that the cataract surgeon uses small incisions, usually without stitches. Most modern cataract surgeons no longer use needle injections around the eye routinely. Most modern cataract surgeons do not use an eye patch routinely following surgery. Cataract surgery should be completed without pain and quickly, routinely lasting about 10 minutes or so. There are always more complicated situations, but we are speaking of the routine standard cataract surgery. Lastly, I believe that a patient should feel very comfortable with their doctor/surgeon. Bedside manner, personality, kinfness, respect are absolutely necessary.  This is what we believe is essential for building relationships for life.

What is Uveitis?

March 01, 2010 @ 07:02 PM — by John Mauro

Uveitis is inflammation anywhere in lining of the eye, known as the uvea, or uveal tract. The inflammation is named according to its location, as anterior uveitis, intermediate uveitis, posterior uveitis, or panuveitis (or inflammation that affects the entire uveal tract). Sometimes, uveitis is referred to by the name of the specific part that is inflamed—for example, iritis (inflammation of the iris), choroiditis (inflammation of the choroid), or chorioretinitis (inflammation that involves both the choroid and the overlying retina). Uveitis can occur because of infection, autoimmune disorders (which causes the body to attack its own tissues), or for unknown reasons.

Examples of autoimmune disorders include; Anklosing Spondylitis, Antiphospholipid Syndrome, Addison’s Disease, Hepatitis, Behcet’s Disease, Pemphigoid, Crohn’s Disease, Dermatomyositis, Lupus, Fibromyalgia, Grave’s Disease, Juvenile Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Myasthenia Gravis, Polyarteritis Nodosa, Polymyalgia Rheumatica, Psoriasis, Reiter’s Syndrome, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Sarcoidosis, Scleroderma, Sjogren’s Syndrome, Temporal Arteritis/Giant Cell Arteritis, Ulcerative Colitis, Wegener’s Granulomatosis. Infections include tuberculosis, syphilis, Lyme disease, herpes simplex virus, shingles (varicella-zoster virus), toxoplasmosis, and cytomegalovirus.

Symptoms of uveitis including eye pain and aching, eye redness, sensitivity to bright light, flashing lights, loss of peripheral vision, or blurred vision and floaters are typical. A eye physician may be able to see prominent blood vessels on the surface of the eye or cornea, white blood cells floating in the fluid that fills the front part of the eye (aqueous humor), and deposits of white blood cells on the inside surface of the cornea.

An eye physician makes the diagnosis and treatment based on the symptoms and a complete physical examination. Depending on suspicion for diseases that also affects other organs, appropriate tests are done. Uveitis is a serious eye disease and can rapidly damage the eye. It can cause long-term, vision-threatening complications, such as glaucoma, and cataracts. Many people have only one episode of uveitis. Others may have periodic recurrences over months to years. All patients with a history of autoimmune disorders should be seen regularly by an eye doctor.

The ophthalmologists at North Shore Eye Care  have consistently been recognized in Castle Connelly's book of Top Doctors. All of the surgeons are board certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology.  More recently Dr. John Mauro has joined the practice and is well recognized for his work in ocular immunology and inflammation, allergic disease and auto-immune disorders.

The History of Cataract Surgery... ask the cataract experts at North Shore Eye Care in Smithtown New York in Long island

February 19, 2010 @ 07:27 AM — by unknown
Cataract surgery has changed dramatically over the last 20 years. In 1962 when Dr. Sidney Martin, a board certified eye doctor and eye surgeon, cataract surgery was performed through a large incision. The cloudy lens of cataract was removed through the incision in one piece and then the incision was sutured. There were no intraocular implants or IOLs so patients had to get very thick glasses called aphakic glasses so that they could see better. These glasses were so thick that there was significant distortion of vision and patients were never really that happy with their functional vision. Because cataract surgery was difficult to get through, patients would wait until they were essentially blind before considering cataract surgery. Today, the board certified cataract doctors and cataract surgeons at North Shore Eye Care in Smithtown New York in Long Island in Suffolk County are able to complete cataract surgery through a 2 millimeter incision without the use of stitches, an eye patch or a needle around the eye. Deep sedation is not necessary today. Our patient get IV sedation and eye drops to numb the surface of the eye. Cataract surgery takes a few minutes and after the cloudy lens or cataract is removed, an intraocular implant or IOL is used to restore vision. We use several implants including premium implants that are designed to provide near and far vision without glasses or contact lenses. We sue accommodating implants like Crystalens and multifocal implants like Restor, Rezoom, and Tecnis Multifocal. We also use Acrysof Toric to reduce or eliminate astigmatism. This leads to the best possible vision and the best possible result. In Long Island New York in suffolk and Nassau County, we see patients from smithtown, nesconset, saint james, kings park, fort salonga, huntington, commack, northport, centerport, greenlawn, dix hills, melville, deer park, plainview, bethpage, woodbury, syosset, massapequa, lindenhurst, sayville, bay shore, babylon, farmingdale, manhasset, rockville center, garden city, east meadow, merrick, roslyn, jericho, brookville, new york city, manhattan, bronx, brooklyn, queens, and many other towns.

We start eye drops three days before cataract surgery because we feel that it gives our patients the best chance at a great result.  We use an antibiotic and an anti-inflammatory eye drop.  Following cataract surgery, we continue eye drops, also adding a steroid eye drop for several weeks following cataract surgery.  The eye drops are probably the hardest part about cataract surgery due to the fact that you have to use them for weeks.
