Keratoconus Treatment
Keratoconus is a degenerative disease that leads to structural changes within the corneal tissue. This progressive condition results in the thinning and weakening of the cornea, which eventually causes it to deform and adapt a cone-like shape. When the cornea's shape has altered enough, it fails to allow light to focus properly on the retina and thereby impairing the patient's vision. In its more advanced stages, keratoconus could result in irreversible corneal deterioration.

IPL for Dry Eyes?
Dry eye syndrome is a typical yet uncomfortable problem affecting many around the world. The issue occurs if a person's eyes are not able to make adequate moisture or when the tears dry up too soon. This may bring on concerns like stinging, burning, and inflammation, as well as sight problems and trouble wearing contacts. Intense Pulsed Light Therapy (IPL) with the Lumenis laser at Wang Vision Institute works by heating and releasing oils that may be trapped and clogging your glands, contributing to dryness and itchiness in your eye. The Lumenis device can also be used for refreshing and smoothing skin to address a number of aesthetic concerns, such as age spots and hyperpigmentation. When you are dealing with symptoms that point toward dry eyes, don't wait to book a consult with our team at Wang Vision Institute to receive an accurate evaluation and custom-tailored care plan involving IPL therapy. At our Nashville, TN office, our staff will help you get back to more comfortable…
Eye Exams
Most people are no strangers to receiving routine eye examinations. In fact, children commonly are given vision screenings at school, and adults may be made to take them for work purposes. Vision tests are also done when applying for a driver's license. However, doing well on a vision evaluation doesn't mean you are clear of any eye disease. A simple acuity exam can't provide a full assessment view of your total eye health and a lot of dangerous, vision-threatening diseases, such as glaucoma, won't give any warning signs. For that reason, receiving annual comprehensive eye exams is important.
