Our Approach to Eye Disease Management in Moscow & Lewiston
Comprehensive Cataract Care
At Alpine Vision Center, we understand the significant impact cataracts can have on your quality of life. Cataracts can arise because of factors such as age, smoking, UV exposure, and diabetes. Fortunately, we're able to ensure that cataracts don't impede your life's pleasures.
We assess your lens for cataract signs during eye health evaluations, and if cataracts are detected, we refer you to a trusted surgeon for cataract surgery. This procedure replaces the clouded lens with a synthetic one, restoring clarity with minimal discomfort. With a success rate of over 90% and low complications, cataract surgery is considered reliable.
Our experience in co-managing cataract surgeries guarantees your pre and post-operative care for utmost comfort and visual wellness.
Early Detection for Glaucoma
Glaucoma, a cluster of eye diseases, jeopardizes the optic nerve due to elevated eye pressure. Factors like age, ethnicity, family history, and certain health conditions can heighten risk. The challenge lies in its silent progression as early glaucoma often lacks symptoms, earning the moniker "silent thief of sight." To combat this stealthy threat, regular comprehensive eye exams are paramount.
We employ advanced diagnostics, including IOP measurement, visual field tests, and retina scanning, for precise glaucoma identification and prompt intervention, safeguarding against vision loss. While we can't prevent glaucoma, early detection and treatment can significantly slow its progression and prevent vision loss.

Macular Degeneration Soutions for Central Vision Preservation

From Anti-VEGF and photodynamic therapies to laser treatments and low vision aids, we provide a range of solutions to optimize your existing vision and improve your daily activities and experiences.
Comprehensive Eye Care for Diabetic Retinopathy
For our diabetic patients, we're vigilant about various potential eye health issues. Among these, diabetic retinopathy involves the swelling or leakage of blood vessels supplying the retina, leading to vision problems.
Regular eye check-ups are essential, as early-stage diabetic retinopathy may not present noticeable symptoms. Proper management of blood sugar levels is also crucial to prevent vision loss, and we work closely with your primary care physician to provide comprehensive care.
Personalized Oral Medications for Optimal Eye Health
For specific eye conditions, personalized oral medication becomes vital. Our offerings encompass precise prescriptions when oral treatment is essential, guaranteeing comprehensive and optimal management of your eye health. Trust us for targeted solutions tailored to your needs.
