Eye Surgeon Miroya Monsour, MD Provides Effective Treatment
Our eye surgeon, Dr. Monsour, provides effective treatment for:
Dry Eyes
We offer a variety of treatment options for patients suffering with pain, itching, redness, and decreased vision resulting from dry eyes.
Flashes and Floaters
Age-related changes are a common cause of the worrisome flashes and floaters that many of our patients experience. Changes in vitreous gel and retinal shadows are the main causes for this phenomenon. The presence of these symptoms may be nothing to worry about or may indicate an issue with your retina. Contact us for a diagnostic exam if you are experiencing flashes or floaters.
Care and Treatment for Age-Related Eye Conditions
As patients age, they can experience conditions that are treatable with the right care, such as:
Glaucoma
Macular Degeneration
When the cells of the retina become damaged, macular degeneration can occur and result in central vision blindness. Treatment options exist when the condition is diagnosed early.
Treatment in Jeannette, PA, for Cataracts and Diabetic Retinopathy
Visit our office in Jeanette, PA, for prompt help with any type of eye emergency. Some of the treatments available include:
Cataracts
Cataracts cloud the lens of the eye to the point of decreasing vision significantly if left untreated. Cataract surgery is available to remove the clouded lens and replace it with a new acrylic lens. This restores sharper, clearer vision almost immediately.
Diabetic Retinopathy
The leading cause of blindness for adults is diabetic retinopathy. Approximately 90% of diabetics are expected to experience this condition during their lifetime. The disease causes abnormalities to occur within the blood vessels that provide nourishment to the retina. These weakened vessels may leak and lead to a decrease in vision. Early detection and treatment are critical. It is absolutely vital that every diabetic patient receives a comprehensive annual eye exam.
It is reassuring to know that Center for Sight – Miroya Monsour, MD schedules time to help patients with emergency eye conditions. Regular examinations are critical to protecting and maintaining your eye health. Remember to visit your eye care professional for an examination at least once a year.
