Specialties offered at our Commack office:

- Cataract surgery - A cataract is the natural opacification of the eye's natural lens that occurs over time. During cataract surgery, the cloudy lens can be removed and a new lens implant can be inserted in its place. Toric (astigmatism correcting), multifocal and extended depth-of-focus intraocular lens implants (IOLs) are offered.

Various types of corneal transplantation, including endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK/DMEK), penetrating keratoplasty (PK) and DALK (deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty) are offered.
- Glaucoma - Treatment for patients with glaucoma and elevated intraocular pressure (ocular hypertension
- Refractive surgery / laser vision correction - Laser vision correction, which includes LASIK and PRK, uses an excimer laser to gently reshape the cornea to correct nearsighted, farsighted, or astigmatic vision. This procedure allows many patients to see without glasses for many activities such as driving or sporting activities, or to enter professions that have vision requirements.
