Services
Cataract Surgery
Marano Eye Care offers Femto Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery using advanced Alcon LenSx Laser technology. This outpatient procedure replaces clouded natural lenses with artificial intraocular lenses like Symfony, PanOptix, and Vivity. The blade-less technique provides precise corrections for astigmatism and presbyopia while reducing surgical complications. Patients typically experience improved vision within days following the 15-20 minute procedure.
Dry Eyes
Our practice diagnoses and treats chronic dry eye syndrome through comprehensive evaluations and customized treatment plans. We offer LipiFlow thermal pulsation therapy to address meibomian gland dysfunction, along with prescription eye drops and punctal plugs. The team provides lifestyle modification guidance to manage symptoms caused by environmental factors, aging, or underlying medical conditions.
Glaucoma
We specialize in glaucoma management using advanced diagnostic tools to detect optic nerve damage and intraocular pressure abnormalities. Treatment options include Durysta implants, iStent devices, and Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty. Our approach focuses on preventing vision loss through early intervention and ongoing monitoring of open-angle and angle-closure glaucoma cases.
LASIK
Our FDA-approved LASIK procedure reshapes corneas to correct myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism using excimer laser technology. The 40-minute outpatient treatment creates permanent vision improvements lasting over a decade. We provide comprehensive pre-operative assessments and post-operative care to ensure optimal visual outcomes for patients seeking independence from glasses or contact lenses.
Macular Degeneration
We diagnose and manage dry and wet age-related macular degeneration through dilated eye exams and retinal imaging. Treatment includes anti-VEGF injections for wet AMD and artificial lens implants for advanced dry AMD cases. Our team provides low-vision rehabilitation referrals and lifestyle modification guidance to slow disease progression.
