Eye Care Services

Cataract Surgery

Cataracts are a common eye condition that occurs when the natural lens becomes clouded over time, typically due to aging. At The Eye Center in Edison, we perform advanced cataract surgery to restore your vision and improve your quality of life. During the procedure, your ophthalmologist replaces the clouded natural lens with an intraocular lens (IOL), with options including monofocal, multifocal, and toric lenses designed to correct astigmatism. The Eye Center offers both traditional cataract surgery and laser refractive cataract surgery (LenSx), which uses a computerized laser to create precise incisions that may increase the predictability of visual outcomes and reduce inflammation. 

Low Vision Exams

Low vision rehabilitation addresses vision loss that no longer responds to standard eyeglass corrections, providing specialized care when patients face significant visual impairment. Our low vision specialist at The Eye Center in Edison assesses each patient’s specific vision needs and offers solutions through advanced eyeglass corrections, adaptive vision aids, counseling, and rehabilitative skills training. These comprehensive exams assess optimal eyeglass correction beyond standard powers and introduce appropriate vision aids, such as desktop and handheld video magnifiers, to enhance daily activities like reading, writing, and viewing photos. Dr. Siegel provides personalized instruction on properly using various handheld magnifiers to maximize remaining vision and maintain independence. 

Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a serious eye condition that damages the optic nerve and can cause blind spots and vision loss, often due to increased intraocular pressure. The most common form, primary open-angle glaucoma, typically produces no symptoms until vision is already impaired, making early detection through annual eye examinations essential. Treatment options at The Eye Center in Edison include medicated eye drops, laser procedures such as trabeculoplasty or peripheral iridotomy, and surgical interventions such as trabeculectomy or glaucoma shunt surgery. Since vision loss from glaucoma is irreversible, close monitoring every three to six months is necessary even after successful treatment to watch for changes and prevent further damage. 

Diabetes/Macular/Retina

At The Eye Center, our Edison eye doctors are specially trained to diagnose and treat all conditions of the retina and vitreous, including diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, retinal tears and detachment, uveitis, and flashes and floaters. Diabetic retinopathy, the most common cause of blindness in U.S. patients under sixty, involves blood vessel changes that usually occur without symptoms but can almost always be prevented through early diagnosis and laser treatment. Macular degeneration affects the macula, which is responsible for sharp central vision and color vision, causing gradual or abrupt vision loss that can be diagnosed during routine eye exams before symptoms appear. Immediate evaluation is recommended at the first sign of new flashes or floaters, as these may indicate underlying retinal conditions such as tears or detachment that require prompt treatment to prevent permanent vision loss. 

Cosmetic Procedures

Our specialty-trained oculofacial plastic surgeons at The Eye Center in Edison specialize in aesthetic eyelid surgery and nonsurgical facial rejuvenation treatments. We perform upper and lower lid blepharoplasty to remove excess skin and fat for a more youthful appearance, and Botox™ injections to relax facial expression muscles and soften wrinkles. Additional treatments include dermal fillers such as Restylane™, Perlane™, and Juvederm™ to restore volume and smooth facial lines, Latisse™ for enhanced eyelash length and fullness, and Eclipse MicroPen™ for micro-needling to improve skin texture and reduce fine lines and acne scars. 

Reconstructive Procedures

The Eye Center in Edison offers medically necessary reconstructive eye procedures to address functional impairments and complications from various conditions. Reconstructive services include ptosis repair for drooping eyelids that interfere with vision, entropion and ectropion repair for inward- or outward-turning lids that cause irritation or tearing, and eyelid reconstruction following skin cancer removal, such as basal cell carcinoma. Additional procedures address thyroid eye disease with interventions for puffy or retracted lids, double vision, and bulging eyes, as well as facial palsy treatment through brow lifts, gold weight placement, and lower lid resuspension to protect the eye and restore function. The practice also provides comprehensive dry eye and tearing management, utilizing prescription drops, punctal plugs, and DCR surgery to alleviate symptoms and improve patient comfort.
