Arthritis
Medical Weight Loss
Possible side effects. The more common eye drop form of this drug may cause stinging, burning, a feeling of something in the eye, and an odd taste in the mouth. Taken as pills (only rarely nowadays), these drugs can have side effects throughout the body, including fatigue, tingling in the hands and feet, depression, frequent urination, anemia, kidney stones, loss of appetite, weight loss, diarrhea, and stomach cramps. Monitoring the dose of the oral pill and taking the medicine with food may help. Pregnant women and people sensitive to sulfa-related drugs should take these medicines with caution if at all. A toxic reaction may occur if taken with large doses of aspirin. Very rarely, these drugs can lead to serious conditions known as Stevens-Johnson syndrome and aplastic anemia.
Pediatric Care
After completing her residency, Dr. Patel embraced the opportunity to gain additional experience in pediatrics. She also has experience in refractive surgery care and geriatrics.
Primary Care
Contact us to schedule an appointment with a physician. Please have your insurance card available when making your appointment. Many managed care insurance plans require a primary care physician referral prior to making a specialist appointment to ensure payment of full benefits. If a referral authorization is needed from your Primary Care Provider (PCP), you are responsible for obtaining this referral prior to your visit. If your care is non-emergent and there is no referral obtained, your appointment will be rescheduled. If you were referred by a physician, we will be sending a report of our consultation to your doctor.
Emergency Care
Using Your Local Emergency Room:Â We believe that the most secure environment for after-hours care is at your local emergency room.Â If you develop a concern about your eye condition after hours please consider proceeding to your local emergency room.Â If you choose to contact us, leave a message on the extension for urgent calls.Â Our doctors make every effort to return calls promptly.Â The doctor will evaluate the concern and may direct you to your local emergency room for evaluation.Â If for some reason you do not get a call back, or if your condition is worsening, please proceed directly to your local emergency room.Â Personal Security:Â Occasionally after-hours visits to our office are needed.Â If this occurs for you please pay attention to your personal security.Â Park as close to our building as possible and remain in your car, with the doors locked, until the doctor identifies herself to you.Â You should have a driver with you who can help escort you to and from your car.

Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
Ophthalmology
Dr. Reddy grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where his interest in medicine began while volunteering at local hospitals and conducting biomedical research in high school. He attended Duke University in Durham, North Carolina where he received a Bachelor of Science degree in Neuroscience, with minors in Biology and Chemistry. He continued on to Duke University School of Medicine where he discovered his passion for ophthalmology.
Laser Eye Surgery
Your eye will be examined in the office by your doctor the day after the surgery. A group of eye medicines will be prescribed depending on the findings at the time of the examination. In most cases postoperative medication will include an antibiotic to help prevent infection, a steroid, to help with the healing process, and a dilating drop, to help stabilize the eye internally. The pressure in the eye usually fluctuates quite a bit postoperatively. If it is initially somewhat high, there may be pressure-lowering medicine used as well. It is important to use these medicines as directed since this can make a great deal of difference in the success of the procedure. There are a number of activity restrictions needed during the first several weeks after the surgery. Your doctor will go over the specific requirements but, in general, it is important to refrain from lifting, bending, and straining. Keeping your “head above your heart” is a good rule-of-thumb to use. Protective eye wear is required at all times. This means wearing your glasses during the day, and your eye shield (taped securely in place) during the night. There may also be some specific instructions regarding your sleeping position. Hair washing requires great care so as to avoid inadvertent injury to the healing eye. Your doctor will go over his or her instructions outlining the preferred modifications recommended for you. Again, it is very important to follow the directions carefully so as to give your eye surgery the best possible opportunity for success.
Cataracts
Glaucoma can occur as the result of an eye injury, inflammation, tumor or advanced cases of cataract or diabetes. Certain drugs such as steroids can also cause secondary glaucoma. This form of glaucoma may be mild or severe. The type of treatment will depend on whether it is open-angle or angle-closure glaucoma.

Ultrasound
WHAT TO EXPECT: An anesthetic drop will be placed in your eye which burns slightly upon instillation but quickly resolves. The examiner will instruct you to look at a fixation point while an ultrasound probe is gently placed on your eye for a few seconds. You will not feel the probe due to the numbing effect of the drop, which lasts for approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
