Services

Dr. Gerber offers a full spectrum of ophthalmic services that address a wide range of eye care needs. His services include:

• LASIK:
  He performs laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis to correct refractive errors. This procedure decreases reliance on glasses or contact lenses, thereby enhancing patient comfort and visual freedom.

• Trans-PRK:
  He conducts transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy, a no-touch laser surgery that corrects vision by reshaping the cornea effectively.

• Cataract Surgery:
  He utilizes modern, minimally invasive techniques to remove cloudy lenses. In doing so, he restores clear vision by replacing them with advanced artificial lenses.

• Corneal Transplants:
  He replaces damaged corneal tissue with healthy donor tissue. This critical procedure improves visual function and overall eye health.

• Glaucoma Management:
  He actively monitors intraocular pressure and implements targeted therapies. As a result, he minimizes the risk of optic nerve damage and potential vision loss.

• Strabismus Treatment:
  He corrects eye misalignment through expertly planned surgical interventions. This treatment improves visual coordination in both children and adults.

• Implantable Contact Lenses (ICLs):
  He surgically implants lenses to correct significant refractive errors, offering an alternative when other procedures are unsuitable.

• Refractive Lens Exchange:
  He replaces the natural lens with an artificial one to correct refractive errors. This option improves vision and provides long-term benefits.

• Presby-LASIK:
  He performs laser surgery specifically designed to address age-related near-vision loss, which helps patients read and work comfortably.

• Multifocal Intra-Ocular Lenses:
  He implants lenses that offer clear vision at multiple distances, thereby reducing the need for additional corrective eyewear.
