Glaucoma Treatment
Here at Dr. Miller's office, we take glaucoma very seriously. Glaucoma is the number one leading cause of preventable blindness in the United States. Glaucoma is often called the silent thief of sight, as the damage it causes usually occurs before a person notices. By the time someone realizes they are losing their vision, it is often to late to treat it.
Glaucoma is very treatable, but you have to find it first. We have the latest technology available here to diagnose and treat glaucoma. We utilize applanation tonometry, which eliminates the old puff of air test, and is actually more accurate. We have a scanning laser tomographer, which can catch early stages of glaucoma, even before it affects your vision. Our visual field testing is fast and accurate, utilizing a patented frequency doubling technology, that catches cells that are damaged early on in the glaucoma process.
We can also take a picture of the back of your eye with a high resolution digital camera.
