Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
Glaucoma is an eye disease that affects the optic nerve, the part of the eye which receives images collected by the retina and sends them to the brain. Every eye maintains a certain amount of internal pressure, called intraocular pressure. When this pressure rises to abnormal levels however, it can put extra stress on the optic nerve, causing significant damage. Optic nerve damage results in loss of vision, and ultimately blindness.
Ophthalmology
Dr. Yoon grew up in Eastman, Georgia. He completed his undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, MA. He received his medical degree from New York Medical College, one of the oldest private medical schools in the U.S., where he was chosen as a New York Medical College Trustee Scholar awarded to the top 15%. He completed his ophthalmology residency at St. Vincent's Hospital in New York City where he served as Chief Resident. He also served as a fellow in Cornea and Refractive Surgery at the Lions Eye Institute in Albany, NY, a specialty referral eye center.
Macular Degeneration
Macular degeneration affects cells in the macula, which is the part of the retina responsible for central vision. Central vision is essential for most basic tasks like reading, driving, recognizing people, etc. Thus, although macular degeneration leaves peripheral vision un-impaired, it can be quite debilitating in its advanced state.
Laser Eye Surgery
Is the most common form of laser vision correction. It is a rapid, effective way to dramatically improve your vision. It is the most commonly performed elective surgery in the United States. Millions of people worldwide have had Lasik laser vision correction including professional athletes, airplane pilots, military personnel, and medical personnel.
Cataracts
A cataract is an opacity that clouds the natural lens inside the eye. Normally the path of light to the retina (where the light sensors are) is as clear as possible. When proteins that make up the lens clump together, the resulting cataract blocks some of the light, making vision blurry, or hazy.
Cataract Surgery
Dr. Yoon, Dr. Thakrar and their staff made this whole surgery process easy and comfortable. I have worn glasses my entire life, but since my cataract surgery I can now get by with just reading glasses and it's feels wonderful!
Eye Exam
A thorough eye examination consists of a variety of standard tests designed to measure visual acuity and other vision faculties, as well as observe the health of the eye and check for common eye diseases. There is no pain or discomfort associated with an exam, and they typically take less than an hour.

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care
Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetes (diabetes mellitus) is a common disease in which blood-sugar levels are chronically too high. The disease has many related complications, and several eye diseases among them. The most common eye complication of diabetes is diabetic retinopathy, a leading cause of adult blindness.

Reconstructive Surgery
Dr. Lemke has a vast amount of experience treating surgical problems of the eyelids and orbit such as ptosis, dermatochalasis, eyelid tumors, entropion, ectropion, and nasolacrimal duct obstructions, as well as cosmetic oculoplastic surgery. Dr. Lemke is a nationally recognized oculoplastic surgeon and past president of the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
