Ophthalmology in the Lowcountry since 2006
Today is a beautiful day.
Let us help you see it.
Comprehensive eye exams, advanced cataract surgery, and medical eye care for Bluffton and Hilton Head Island — from board-certified ophthalmologists who have cared for this community for nearly twenty years.
What we do
Complete eye care, from annual exams to advanced surgery
Most people meet us for a routine exam. Some of them we go on to care for through cataract surgery, glaucoma management, or a sudden problem that can't wait.
-
Cataract Lens Options
The lens you choose shapes how much you rely on glasses afterwards. Here is what the options actually mean, without the marketing.
-
Cataract Surgery
One of the most common and most reliably successful operations in medicine — and one our surgeons have performed thousands of times, here in the Lowcountry.
-
Diabetic Eye Exams & Retinopathy Care
If you have diabetes, an annual dilated eye exam is the single most effective way to protect your sight — even when your vision seems perfectly fine.
-
Dropless Cataract Surgery
The medication goes in during surgery instead of into your hand four times a day for a month.
-
Dry Eye Diagnosis & Treatment
Burning, gritty, watering eyes and vision that keeps going in and out — dry eye is common, genuinely miserable, and very treatable.
-
Comprehensive Eye Exams
A full eye exam checks how well you see and how healthy your eyes are — performed by a board-certified eye physician, not just a vision screening.
-
Glaucoma Diagnosis & Management
Glaucoma takes peripheral vision so gradually that most people never notice until it is gone. Found early, it is very manageable.
-
Macular Degeneration Care
Macular degeneration affects the central vision you use to read, drive, and recognise faces. Caught early and monitored properly, a great deal can be done to protect it.
Our doctors
Three physicians. One standard of care.
Every one of our doctors sees patients at both the Bluffton and Hilton Head offices.
