Pediatric Care
A: Most physicians test vision as part of a child’s medical examination. They may refer your child to see an ophthalmologist (a medical eye doctor) if there is any sign of an eye condition. The American Academy of Ophthalmology and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend the first vision screening to occur in the hospital as part of a newborn baby’s discharge examination. Visual function (including ocular alignment, etc.) also should be checked by the pediatrician or family physician during routine well-child exams (typically at two, four and six months of age). Amblyopia and alignment screenings should be performed at three years of age, then yearly after school age.

Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
Dr. Pauls was born and raised in Kansas but resided in Texas most of 2002 through 2007. However, in 2007, Dr. Pauls decided to return to school and applied for admission to the Southern College of Optometry in Memphis, Tennessee. Shortly after graduation in 2011, he began his career as an optometrist with Dr. Ruckman at The Center For Sight. In addition, he was certified as an Optometric Glaucoma Specialist in 2011. Dr. Pauls brings to the practice knowledge of family optometry, focusing on glasses, contact lenses, and diagnosis and management of eye diseases.
Ophthalmology
Dr. Kravitz is a Board Certified Ophthalmologist who graduated first in his class of 721 students. He subsequently received his Bachelor of Science degree from Duke University. He later received his doctorate of medicine from Tulane University where he graduated top of his class and was elected into the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society. He completed his residency in Ophthalmology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota in June of 2012.
Macular Degeneration
The macula is the small, central area of the retina that allows us to see fine details clearly. Macular Degeneration affects your central or reading vision. Most people who have Macular Degeneration have the "dry" type, which cannot be helped by laser or in-office injections. However, vitamin therapies may reduce the rate of progression.
Laser Eye Surgery
Once you’ve had your LASIK procedure performed, you will benefit from the convenience of having your post-op care provided close to home by one of our doctors.
Cataracts
The Center For Sight offers an in-house Ambulatory Surgery Center for most surgical procedures including cataract surgeries. Certified by Medicare and the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care, Inc. (AAAHC), this state-of-the-art facility was opened in 1993. The certification earned by The Center For Sight's surgery center ensures that strict guidelines are followed to provide for your comfort and safety during your surgical procedure.
Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery has made many advances during the past 20 years. Our surgeon, Dr. Kravitz, is proud to provide the most advanced techniques of surgery available. Our routine cataract procedure is a “small incision, no-stitch operation,” in which the cataract is removed through less than ¼-inch incision, using a technique called phacoemulsification. An intraocular lens is then placed inside the eye, replacing the natural lens.
Eye Exam
Eye exams on a regular basis are important in order to maintain optimum vision and to detect eye diseases and conditions in their earliest stages. An eye exam may be scheduled with any of our doctors and will include a dilated retinal exam, complete eye health evaluation and glasses prescription, if necessary. Additional services, such as contact lens fittings are available.

Mental Health
This Notice of Privacy Practices describes how we may use and disclose your protected health information to carry out treatment, payment or health care operations and for other purposes that are permitted or required by law. It also describes your rights to access and control your protected health information. “Protected health information” is information about you, including demographic information, that may identify you and that relates to your past, present, or future physical or mental health or condition and related health care services.

Diabetes Care
Diabetic Retinopathy
Eye disease from diabetes is the major cause of new blindness in patients aged 20-64. Diabetes can cause blood vessels in the retina to grow abnormally. The vessels can leak fluid (macular edema) or bleed inside the eye. The Center For Sight of Lufkin and Livingston, stresses that dilated eye exams are very important to track and manage diabetic changes. These exams should be performed every six-to-12 months or sooner depending on the degree of the disease. If the diabetic retinopathy requires further evaluation, a Fluorescein Angiogram may be ordered to provide photographs of the blood vessels in the retina. A special dye is injected into the arm to allow photography of these vessels.
