In your golden years, your vision may not be what it once was. The most common cause is cataracts, and no one in our area is more experienced in taking care of them. In fact, we do more cataract surgery than any other group in the metro area. And that’s just one in a long line of ‘firsts’ for Illinois Eye Surgeons. We performed the first lens implant in Southern Illinois—and the first Premium Lens Implant as well. When it comes to the very latest technology—and the experience to make the most of it—we continue to lead the way.

Cataracts aren’t the only cause of poor vision as you get older. Other reasons include diabetes, glaucoma, macular generation, drooping eyelids and more. To see your best, you should see the best, most experienced surgeons. We have specialists for every vision problem, right here in Southern Illinois.

But sometimes, poor vision can be caused by just an old, outdated pair of glasses. Our optometrists specialize in fitting glasses for older adults.

For contact lenses, glasses—or to see if you are a candidate for refractive surgery—see one of our experienced optometric physicians. For appointments with one of our MD surgeons, please visit our appointment scheduling page.
