New Instrumentation For Early Detection of Glaucoma...
The Zeiss-Humphrey GDx VCC is our newest addition in the fight against glaucoma and other optic neuropathies.



This fast, non-invasive test uses scanning laser interferometry to measure the density of the retinal nerve fiber layer, giving your doctor a structural view of the nerves which make up the optic nerve in each eye. This helps determine the symmetry of the two eyes' optic nerve structure, and helps the doctor diagnose glaucoma, multiple sclerosis, and other optic neuropathies, sometimes even before any functional visual field loss has occured.


Ask Your Doctor About Nutrition And The Eye

Did you know that daily intake of certain nutrients - either through foods or supplements - has been linked to healthy eyes and may reduce the risk of some chronic eye conditions?

  • 10 mg/day Lutein
  • 500 mg/day DHA/EPA essential fatty acids
  • 500 mg/day Vitamin C
  • 400 iu/day Vitamin E
  • 2 mg/day Copper
  • 40-80 mg/day Zinc
  • 2 mg/day Zeaxanthin

Your doctor can make recommendations about nutritional supplements and dietary considerations, and lifestyle choices to help you get the necessary nutrients for prevention of macular degeneration, dry eyes, glaucoma and cataracts.
