Retina Specialist

General Practitioners

Cryotherapy
The gas slowly dissipates on its own. During this time, the patient will be instructed about specific head positioning. During the next couple of days, the patient will then return for either laser photocoagulation or cryotherapy to treat the retinal tear. With the gas bubble in the eye, the patient will be restricted from flying in an airplane and should notify the anesthesiologist if any anesthesia will be needed for procedures.

Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
Maintaining your vision requires you to take care of yourself, and avoiding issues related to your diabetes. The blood vessels in your eyes can be damaged by high blood sugar, resulting in a condition called diabetic retinopathy. With diabetes, you are also more susceptible to cataracts and glaucoma.
Ophthalmology
“UV radiation...can damage the eye’s surface tissues as well as the cornea and lens,” said Michael Kutryb, MD, ophthalmologist and clinical correspondent for the American Academy of Ophthalmology. “Unfortunately, many people are unaware of the dangers UV light can pose. By wearing UV-blocking sunglasses, you can enjoy the summer safely while lowering your risk for potentially blinding eye diseases and tumors.” It is important to start wearing proper eye protection at an early age to protect your eyes from years of ultraviolet exposure.
Macular Degeneration
Eylea injection, also known as aflibercept, is a medication that is used to treat the wet form of age-related macular degeneration, also known as AMD or ARMD. Age-related macular degeneration affects the macula, the part of the eye that provides sharp, central vision.
Laser Eye Surgery
Hudson Yards Eye Surgery Center provides concierge level eye surgeries for patients paying out of pocket or with a high deductible from anywhere in the world.
Cataracts
Awareness of sun safety is important. Studies show that exposure to bright sunlight may increase the risk of developing cataracts and growths on the eye, including cancer. Sunlight reflected off sand, water and glass can cause photokeratitis, the condition responsible for snow blindness. So if you like to spend your summer on the beach or by the pool, this is important!
Cataract Surgery
Vitrectomy is a surgical procedure that is performed in the hospital, as an outpatient. Some common reasons for vitrectomy surgery are for non-clearing vitreous hemorrhage, repair of retinal detachment, epiretinal membranes/ macular holes and retained lens fragments after cataract surgery.

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care
Diabetic Retinopathy
Retinal laser photocoagulation is commonly used for treatment of focal vascular leakage in the retina (macular edema), proliferative retinopathy (diabetic retinopathy and vein occlusion) and retinal tears or limited retinal detachment. This is an in-office procedure. An anesthetic drop is applied to the eye and a coupling gel with a contact lens is placed over the eye. The laser procedure consists of bright light lasting for a few minutes. Some patients report pressure or mild pain during the procedure. Immediately after the procedure, vision will be discolored and blurred but will return in a few minutes. After the procedure, patients will most often experience the same level of vision as before the procedure. Patching of the treated eye is not necessary after laser procedures.
