General Practitioners

Arthritis
Rheumatoid Arthritis: In addition to inflamed joints, rheumatoid arthritis can affect the eyes. In fact, the autoantibodies that target your joints can target the eye's glands and other structures.
Primary Care
Whether you have type 1, type 2, or even just gestational diabetes, you are at risk for developing diabetic retinopathy. The longer you have had the disease, the greater the risk. It is essential to keep your blood sugar levels under control to prevent vision loss, and this may require a trip back to your primary care physician.

Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a common eye condition in which your optic nerve, the bundle of nerves at the back of the eye, which feeds visual information to the brain, is damaged because of high inner eye pressure, known as intraocular pressure. This condition can lead to total permanent blindness in a short amount of time if it is not treated properly. Furthermore, glaucoma usually has no noticeable symptoms, and patients diagnosed with glaucoma usually
Macular Degeneration
No wait time. Everyone was great. Karen Healey was thorough and explained my treatment plan well. She is helping me prevent macular degeneration since it runs in my family.
Laser Eye Surgery
If you are considering LASIK, be aware that dry eyes may disqualify you for the surgery, at least until your dry eye condition is successfully treated. Dry eyes increase your risk for poor healing after LASIK, so most surgeons will want to treat the dry eyes first, to ensure a good LASIK outcome. This goes for other types of vision correction surgery, as well.
Cataracts
If youâ€™ve been diagnosed with cataracts, your optometrist will monitor its progression and manage your symptoms. Once you need surgery, your optometrist can direct you to an eye surgeon.
Eye Exam
A good contact lens fit starts with a thorough eye exam to ensure the most up-to-date prescription and rule out anyÂ pre-existing conditions that could interfere with contact lens wear.

Multiple Sclerosis
The optic nerve connects the eye directly to the brain and is to some extent an extension of the central nervous system. Swelling or inflammation of the optic nerve can therefore be viewed as an early sign of multiple sclerosis. Although this kind of swelling can also indicate a number of other ailments or even a viral infection or vitamin deficiency, about 20% of people with multiple sclerosis first experienced swelling of the optic nerve.

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care
Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is an eye disease that only affects diabetics. It occurs when the fragile vascular network that supplies the retina â€“ the light sensitive tissue at the back of the eye that helps us see â€“ begins to swell or leak. During the beginning stages of the disease, there may be no noticeable symptoms, so itâ€™s important to have your eyes checked at least once a year, if you have diabetes.
