He was joined by Dr. Michael Michael and several other notable ophthalmologists over the years who were early pioneers in cataract and retinal procedures, also employing preeminent optometrists to serve a budding contact lens industry.

Patients should see their eye doctor for a comprehensive examination every one to three years, depending on their age, risk of disease and overall physical condition. Regular examinations can allow for early detection and possible prevention of eye diseases which may otherwise go undetected by a patient until they are far advanced.
You already know that 30 minutes of physical exercise a day can pay benefits to your heart, your waistline and your energy level. But it can also do your eyes a world of good. It makes sense that your eyes would receive the same benefit that the rest of your body does when you exercise. Many eye diseases are linked to other health problems, including high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol levels.
Diabetic retinopathy is a condition that may occur in people who have longstanding or poorly controlled diabetes where the blood vessels weaken, leak or close off in the retina. The early stage, called non-proliferative or background retinopathy, is identified by small vessel out-pouchings (microaneurysms), and fluids or blood collecting in the retina.
