The ophthalmologists at the Cole Eye Institute are experienced in treating all eye disease and problems, including retinopathy of prematurity, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, glaucoma, amblyopia, and other retina disease through procedures such as refractive eye surgery.

The fact sheets listed at the right are designed to offer general health information regarding eye disease, not give medical advice. Only a doctor in a face-to-face clinical setting can diagnose an eye disease and give advice about treatment based on the risks and benefits for each individual patient.
