Give Your Eyes the Care They Deserve

Eye Disease Management Includes:

  • Comprehensive eye exam

    Comprehensive eye exams are critical in catching sight-robbing eye diseases that typically don’t show early symptoms.

  • Diagnostic screening

    Certain changes in your eyes can indicate eye conditions. Our optometrists can diagnose the disease and determine the cause of these changes.

  • Treatments and surgeries

    We provide a wide range of treatments, including prescription eye drops and other medication. If needed, we'll refer you to the right specialist for eye surgery.

  • After care and follow-up

    We provide follow-up exams and after-care treatments to help you manage your symptoms and safeguard your vision.


What Are the 4 Most Common Eye Diseases?

  • Diabetic Retinopathy

    If you have diabetes, you should be aware of the risk of diabetic retinopathy. Elevated blood sugar can cause blood vessels in the eye to become inflamed or swell. In the early stages, you may not notice symptoms, but advanced diabetic retinopathy can cause blurred vision or eye inflammation.

    Diabetic retinopathy treatment includes:

    • Prescription medication
    • Laser surgeries
    • Anti-VEGF and steroid injections
    • Vitrectomy
  • Glaucoma

    Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness and often doesn’t show early symptoms. High pressure inside the eye causes glaucoma, and the purpose of glaucoma management is to reduce intraocular pressure.

    Glaucoma treatments include:

    • Prescription eye drops or medications
    • Laser procedures
    • Filtration surgery
    • Drainage tubes
    • Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS)
  • Cataracts

    Cataracts are cloudy formations on the eye lens. They can make your vision blurry and distorted. To restore normal vision, an optometrist will recommend cataract surgery, which involves replacing the cloudy lens with an artificial intraocular lens.

  • Macular Degeneration

    Macular degeneration, or AMD, occurs when the macula or the central part of the retina deteriorates. This results in blurred and distorted vision.

    There are two types of AMD: Dry AMD and Wet AMD.

    Although there isn’t a treatment for dry AMD, lifestyle changes and specific supplements can help prevent further vision deterioration.

    Wet AMD treatments include:

    • Photodynamic therapy
    • Anti-VEGF injections
    • Laser photocoagulation

Distorted or Blurred Vision? Have a family history of serious eye diseases?

My 4 year old daughter has suffered with multiple styes this year and unfortunately one of these sty... es turned into a chalazion. We went to multiple doctors for consults and it seems like hot compress was the only thing other eye doctors recommended... but the staff at Griffin Eye Care have been nothing short of amazing! The doctor recommended LLLT, so we went for 6 sessions and during our frequent visits my daughter developed such a love for the staff at Griffin Eye Care. The doctors are very knowledgeable and patient, and the nurse and receptionists are very sweet. We loved our experience at Griffin Eye Care!

Honestly, I have been to many eye doctors over the years, and this has been the best experience yet!... The staff is so light hearted and pleasant to speak with. Dr. L Griffin is amazing! I love her methods! Cannot wait to come back! 🙂

The optilight is a complete game changer. I have suffered from dry eye for years and have relied on ... drops multiple times a day for relief for as long as I can remember! After 1 session, my eyes were brighter, not gritty, and I was using drops once a day! Now finishing my third session, I am a seeing through new eyes - literally! Not to mention, my skin has improved dramatically!! Dr. Griffin and her team are the absolute BEST!!!

Adopting a healthy lifestyle and getting regular eye exams can improve your chances of maintaining clear vision and eye health.

Make sure to:

  • Avoid smoking

  • Have regular eye exams
What are the symptoms of serious eye problems?
