Subspecialty care, without leaving the Treasure Coast.
Most eye practices refer complex disease elsewhere. We built ours so the specialist you need already works here.
Cataracts & Lens Surgery
Premium cataract surgery under topical anesthesia, including the Light Adjustable Lens — the only implant that can be fine-tuned after surgery.
Cataract surgeryOculofacial Surgery
Cosmetic eyelid surgery and brow lifting from a fellowship-trained oculofacial plastic surgeon, on staff since 2003 — plus functional eyelid surgery that insurance often covers.
Oculofacial surgeryLASIK & PRK
Bladeless IntraLase flaps and the VISX excimer laser with iDesign wavefront guidance, in our St. Lucie County refractive suite. Screening is free.
Laser vision correctionRetina & Macular Degeneration
Fellowship-trained retina care, including Valeda light therapy — the first FDA-authorized treatment for vision loss from dry macular degeneration.
Retina & macularAesthetics
Sciton BBL, Halo and TRL resurfacing, Botox and fillers — delivered by a practice whose surgeons work in the anatomy around the eye every day.
AestheticsMedical Eye Care
Glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic eye disease, dry eye, cornea and retina — each led by a fellowship-trained specialist.
Medical eye careIt usually starts with something you have quietly stopped doing.
Cataracts come on slowly, and vision you lose gradually is easy to explain away — until you notice the things you have stopped doing. The most common reasons in our practice are below, but it can be anything vision-related that gets in the way of your daily activities.
Night driving
Halos, starbursts and glare around headlights — or simply a loss of quality, a fading of contrast that is harder to name. Either way you start avoiding the roads after dark, or quietly limiting how far from home you are willing to go.
You lose the ball
You hit it and lose it in flight — or you cannot follow your partner's ball either, which is the version people mention first, because it is harder to blame on the swing. On the tennis court it shows up the same way: the ball is simply harder to pick up than it used to be.
Reading is work
You need more light than you used to. Or you can still read, but it tires you now, when it used to be effortless.
Those are the three we hear most, but they are not a checklist. Sewing, a computer screen, a recipe card, road signs, faces across a room — if your vision is getting in the way of something you want to do, that counts.
Four things you may not find elsewhere.
Light Adjustable Lens
The only FDA-approved lens that can be fine-tuned after surgery, with light treatments once your eye has healed.
Valeda light therapy
The first FDA-authorized treatment for vision loss from dry macular degeneration. No injection, no surgery.
IntraLase & iDesign
Bladeless flaps and a wavefront map of your individual eye, rather than a treatment built from a glasses prescription.
Sciton BBL, Halo & TRL
Laser resurfacing and broadband light — used for brown spots, red spots, and for dry eye.
We built the practice we wanted our own families to use.
One stop for your eye care needs.
Exams, surgery, optical, dispensary.
Our optical has four opticians and a real range of frames, from simple to designer — plus a serious sunglasses selection for boaters, golfers and anyone who spends the day in Florida sun. Outside prescriptions are welcome, and we are always happy to adjust or repair your glasses whether we sold them or not.
Our dispensary fills prescription and over-the-counter eye medications before you leave. It saves you a trip, which matters more than it sounds when your eyes have just been dilated.
Offering the only lens you can fine-tune after surgery.
The Light Adjustable Lens is the only FDA-approved intraocular lens that can be customized after your cataract procedure. We implant the lens, let your eye heal, then adjust your vision with a series of painless light treatments until it matches the way you actually live.
It also allows something no other lens does: with the LAL, the interval between your first eye and your second can be as short as a few days.
