Glaucoma Care in Austin, TX
Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness in the world, and the first leading cause among African-Americans. Routine exams are essential in protecting your vision. The goal of treatment for glaucoma is not to restore lost sight but to manage the condition by preventing further glaucomatous damage to the optic nerve, preserving your field of sight, and maintaining a rich quality of life.
Diagnosis is of the utmost importance, and Tech Ridge Vision uses the most advanced technology in the industry. We offer you sophisticated diagnostic tools, including: the Zeiss Cirrus HD-OCT, a retinal scanner that provides wide field, high resolution scans of the optic nerve and retina; the Zeiss Visucam Pro, a retinal camera which uses photo-documentation to help with accurate diagnoses and in developing management options; and the Humphrey Matrix Perimeter, technology which permits us to assess vision loss due to neurological conditions and eye diseases. We use these tools in order to serve you better and to ensure that your sight is preserved as much as possible. It cannot be emphasized enough that early diagnosis is tremendously important to achieve the best visual outcome. To help facilitate this, we make sure to incorporate the latest technology into our practice.
A management program may involve medications, typically in the form of eye drops, performing minor surgeries, or co-managing your care with your family physician. Research into glaucoma is ongoing, and you can be assured that we will provide you with access to the latest, most successful, and safest treatment methods possible. That is our commitment to you; help us preserve your vision by scheduling an exam today.
