Is it getting harder and harder to see the letters while you read? You may have developed a vision condition. Come in today to consult with your doctor! #eyehealth #farsighted
If you are interested in eyelid surgery, it’s important that you see an oculoplastic surgeon rather than a plastic surgeon. An oculoplastic surgeon has been trained specifically in the eye and peri-orbital area rather than the broad range of all plastic surgery procedures. #eyelidsurgery #oculoplastic

The TECNIS® Multifocal and Alcon ReSTOR® lenses represent breakthrough technology because of their unique optic design which may allow patients to experience the highest level of freedom from glasses. Multifocal lenses use complementary technology to allow patients to experience a full range of high quality vision without the need for reading glasses or bifocals, even in low lighting conditions. During some of the clinical trials in the US, the results were impressive! https://bit.ly/2GVouYu CAPEFEARCATARACT.COM Lifestyle Lens Options Wilmington NC | Intraocular Lens

The cornea is the front clear “window” of the eye and is responsible for approximately two thirds of the eye’s focusing power. Healthy function of the cornea is required to maintain the unique clarity of this layer, and therefore all vision depends upon it. The cornea also forms the front wall of the eye and is therefore important for protecting the internal structures of the eye. If the cornea becomes hazy or cloudy, or if its shape or surface becomes very irregular, vision can be impaired. visit or call us to learn more! https://bit.ly/2U169g9 CAPEFEARCATARACT.COM Cornea Transplant Wilmington NC | Cornea Transplant Surgery

People often believe that failing eyesight is an inevitable result of aging or eye strain. In truth, a healthy lifestyle can significantly reduce the risk of eye health problems. How can you improve today? #eyesight #eyehealth #superfoods
Dry eye is the term used when the tear film is inadequate. Normally, the surface of the eye is constantly covered with a uniform layer of constantly produced tears replenished by normal and automatic frequent blinking. When the tear film dries, vision immediately becomes blurry as this is equivalent to roughing the normal smooth front surface of a camera lens. Patients with dry eye or ocular surface disease complain of tearing, burning, stinging, redness, irritation, blurred vision, inability to wear contacts comfortably, and general foreign body sensation. https://bit.ly/2EnZUOf CAPEFEARCATARACT.COM Dry Eye Wilmington NC | Dry Eye Treatment
Cataract surgery is the most commonly performed surgical procedure in the United States. It is very safe and effective. Left untreated, cataracts can eventually lead to blindness. Call us today to learn more about cataract surgery! #cataracts #worldblindnessawarenessmonth
A great improvement in corneal transplantation has been the ability to avoid full thickness transplants in certain conditions. If only a small layer of the cornea is transplanted, the original natural shape, optical quality, and strength of a patient’s original cornea is more easily maintained. https://bit.ly/2U169g9 CAPEFEARCATARACT.COM Cornea Transplant Wilmington NC | Cornea Transplant Surgery

In early stages, a cataract may simply cause simple blurring and a need to change spectacles. Eventually, however, patients with cataract experience painless and progressive reduction of sight resulting in significant visual handicaps. Surgery is the only treatment for visually significant cataract and is recommended when reduction in vision significantly impacts daily functions. visit or call us to learn more! https://bit.ly/2BNxhbv CAPEFEARCATARACT.COM Cataract Surgery Wilmington | Cataract Removal North Carolina

“When you are kind to others, it not only changes you, it changes the world.” -Harold Kushner #BeKind #kindness
Your cornea must be clear, smooth and healthy for good vision. If it is scarred, swollen, or damaged, light is not focused properly into the eye. As a result, your vision is blurry or you see a glare. If your cornea cannot be healed or repaired, we may recommend a corneal transplant. #cornealtransplant
