General Practitioners

Ear Infections
While the smokers themselves will feel the worst effects of smoking, it can also hurt those closest to them through secondhand smoke. Secondhand smoke increases the risk of heart disease, lung cancer, and stroke. In children, it can cause asthma attacks, bronchitis, ear infections, pneumonia, and even increase the risk of SIDS.
Family Practice
Dr. Gabriel has practiced in the North Phoenix/ Scottdale area for the past 17 years and has become one of the most respected family practice eye doctors in the valley. She has a great following of very loyal patients. She also has a great deal of experience with contact lenses and children.
Bronchitis
Pneumonia

Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
Often called “the silent thief of sight,” glaucoma is an increase in the intraocular pressure of the eyes, which causes damage to the optic nerve with no signs or symptoms in the early stages of the disease. If left untreated, glaucoma can lead to a decrease in peripheral vision and eventually blindness.
Macular Degeneration
Macular degeneration is a chronic, progressive disease that gradually destroys sharp central vision due to a deterioration of the macula, a tiny spot in the central portion of your retina comprised of millions of light-sensing cells. Because it is so commonly associated with aging, it is also known as age-related macular degeneration (AMD). There are two forms of AMD called “dry,” most common and with no known treatment, and “wet,” less common and treated with laser procedures. Genetic testing is now available to help identify those most likely to develop “wet” macular degeneration.
Laser Eye Surgery
In reality, most people have some degree of astigmatism, which is usually present at birth and is believed to be hereditary. In minor cases, treatment may not be required but is certainly beneficial. Moderate to severe astigmatism can be treated with corrective eyewear or LASIK surgery.
Cataracts
A cataract is a clouding of the eye’s normally clear lens, which leads to a progressive blurring or dimming of vision. It is the world’s leading cause of blindness and among the most common conditions related to aging – by age 65, you have a 50 percent chance of developing a cataract, and, by age 75, it jumps to 70 percent.
Cataract Surgery
The risk of cataracts (the world’s leading cause of blindness) doubles for smokers. Early symptoms of cataracts include blurred or double vision, faded colors, poor night vision, and light sensitivity. The good news is that cataract surgery is both safe and incredibly common, which means that any vision loss from cataracts doesn’t have to last.
Eye Exam
Lazy eye is not always easy to recognize since a child with worse vision in one eye does not necessarily have lazy eye. Because of this, it is recommended that all children, including those with no symptoms, have a comprehensive eye examination by the age of three and sooner if there is a family history of any eye condition or disease. If you suspect a problem, or need to set up your child’s first eye examination, contact AZ Eye Health to set up an appointment.

Internists

Lung Cancer
The main health risk that tends to come to mind with a smoking habit is lung cancer, perhaps followed by oral health problems, but it doesn’t merely harm the parts of the body that come into direct contact with the smoke. Studies show that there is a significant increase in the risk of eye diseases from cataracts to diabetic retinopathy to glaucoma to age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care
Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy happens when weakened blood vessels at the back of the eye begin leaking blood into the field of vision, starving the retina of the oxygen it needs. The problem tends to worsen over time, particularly if the diabetes isn’t controlled well.
