Comprehensive eye exams and evaluations

Fluorescein angiography (FA)

It´s an special camera to take pictures of the retina. These pictures helps to the ophthalmologist get a better look at the blood vessels and other structures in the back of the eye.
It is recommended to find and diagnose eye disease including:
-Macular edema (swelling in the retina that distorts vision)
-Diabetic retinopathy (damaged or abnormal blood vessels in the eye caused by diabetes)
-Macular degeneration
-Blockage of veins inside the eye, called BRVO or CRVO
-Macular pucker (a wrinkle in the retina caused by a buildup of fluid behind it)
-Ocular melanoma (a type of cancer affecting the eye)

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

It is a non-invasive imaging tests. They use light waves to take cross-section pictures of your retina.

This allows Dr. Jacob Pedraza to map and measure their thickness.

These measurements help with diagnosis. They also guide treatment for glaucoma as well as retinal disease, like age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and diabetic eye disease.

Glaucoma Surgery

 

There are several different treatments for glaucoma, including eyedrops, laser treatment and surgery.

 

The best treatment for you will depend on your circumstances.

 

Treatment can’t reverse any loss of vision that has already occurred, but it can help stop your vision getting any worse.
