Eye Disease Management at Coastal Vision
Glaucoma Treatment
Glaucoma, often called the "silent thief of sight," requires expert care to prevent vision loss.
The key to effective glaucoma treatment is early detection, which is why our optometrists use advanced diagnostic tools and techniques to identify glaucoma in its earliest stages. Once diagnosed, our team develops a personalized glaucoma treatment plan tailored to your unique condition and needs.
Some treatments may require you to visit a local ophthalmologist.
Cataracts
Cataracts form as a natural part of the aging process. Over time, the proteins in the eye's natural lens begin to clump together, forming a cloudy mass called a cataract.
Some treatments may require you to visit a local ophthalmologist.
Advanced Solutions for Macular Degeneration
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss in older adults. Prevention is crucial, and we offer guidance on lifestyle changes and preventive measures to reduce your risk. We offer cutting-edge treatments to slow its progression and help you maintain your sight.
We tailor macular degeneration treatment plans to your condition and lifestyle. Some treatments may require you to visit a local ophthalmologist.
Treatment for Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy, a common complication of diabetes, is a potentially sight-threatening condition that demands careful attention and specialized treatment. Our approach to diabetic retinopathy treatment is as individual as you are, beginning with a thorough assessment to determine the extent of the disease and its impact on your eyesight.
Some treatments may require you to visit a local ophthalmologist.
Keratoconus Care
Keratoconus is a progressive eye disease that affects the cornea, the clear, dome-shaped front surface of your eye. This condition causes the cornea to gradually thin and bulge into a cone-like shape, leading to distorted vision and visual impairment. If left untreated, keratoconus can severely impact your ability to see clearly and perform everyday tasks.
Depending on the stage of keratoconus, we provide a range of treatment options to suit your unique needs. These treatments may include specialty contact lenses, such as scleral lenses, which provide improved vision and comfort for keratoconus patients.
Prescribing Oral Medication
Sometimes oral medication may be crucial to your personalized treatment plan. Our skilled team of eye care professionals will carefully assess your condition, considering your needs and medical history.
If oral medication is deemed necessary for managing your eye condition, we will provide you with detailed guidance on its usage and potential side effects while closely monitoring your progress to healthier vision.
Oral Steroids
Oral steroids can be vital in treating specific eye conditions and diseases. At Coastal Vision, our experienced optometrists are well-versed in oral steroids as part of comprehensive eye care. If we decide oral steroids are an appropriate treatment option for your condition, we will explain the benefits and potential risks involved.
