An ophthalmologist is a medical or osteopathic doctor specializing in eye and vision care. At East Arkansas Family Health Center (EAFHC), our eye doctor provides high-quality, personalized eye care for patients of all ages. He diagnoses and treats all eye diseases, performs eye surgery, and prescribes and fits eyeglasses and contact lenses to correct vision problems.

Some of the most common eye problems we treat include:

• Astigmatism
• Cataracts
• Conjunctivitis (inner eyelid infection)
• Corneal abrasion or injury
• Diabetic retinopathy
• Dry eye
• Eye allergies
• Farsightedness
• Flashers and floaters
• Glaucoma
• Macular degeneration
• Nearsightedness
• Presbyopia
• Retinal tear and detachment
• Uveitis (inner eye infection)

If you have any vision problems, it’s essential to see an eye doctor as soon as possible. You don’t want to take any chances with your eyesight. Eye concerns that are not treated can lead to impaired vision and blindness.

Early detection and treatment of eye disease or injury can prevent a minor problem from becoming more serious. That’s why we offer eye and vision care as part of the comprehensive medical services you’ll find at our West Memphis location.
