Eye treatment can range from medication and monitoring to advanced surgical reconstruction, depending on which part of the eye is affected and how much the condition interferes with vision. Some problems are best managed conservatively, while others require a more precise procedural approach to protect the eye, restore function, or improve visual quality.
At Siepser Eyecare in Wayne, PA, Steven B. Siepser, M.D., F.A.C.S., brings decades of experience treating complex eye conditions, surgical complications, and traumatic injuries. His background in cataract surgery, glaucoma care, corneal procedures, intraocular lens problems, and eye trauma reconstruction allows treatment planning to be tailored to the specific structures involved and the needs of each patient.
Eye Treatments We Offer
Glaucoma Treatments
Glaucoma treatment focuses on lowering eye pressure and protecting the optic nerve from further damage. Depending on the type and severity of glaucoma, treatment may include prescription eye drops, laser procedures, minimally invasive glaucoma surgery, or other surgical options. Ongoing monitoring is also an important part of long-term care.
Floater Treatment
Most floaters do not need treatment, but persistent or visually disruptive floaters may require closer evaluation. Treatment depends on the cause and severity of symptoms and may range from observation to surgical options in select cases. A sudden increase in floaters can also signal a retinal problem and should be checked promptly.
Corneal Debridement
Corneal debridement removes damaged or poorly attached surface cells from the cornea so healthier tissue can grow back. It may be recommended for recurrent corneal erosion, persistent abrasions, or other conditions that interfere with normal healing and cause ongoing pain, irritation, or blurred vision.
Pterygium Repair
A pterygium is a noncancerous growth that can extend from the white of the eye onto the cornea. Surgical repair may be recommended when the growth causes persistent irritation, affects vision, induces astigmatism, or continues to enlarge. Treatment removes the abnormal tissue and helps restore a smoother ocular surface.
Corneal Transplants: DSAEK & DMEK
DSAEK and DMEK are partial-thickness corneal transplant procedures that replace damaged endothelial tissue at the back of the cornea. These techniques may treat conditions such as Fuchs’ endothelial dystrophy or corneal swelling after surgery. Because they replace only the affected layers, healthy corneal tissue can often remain in place.
Eye Trauma Reconstruction
Serious eye injuries may damage the cornea, iris, lens, or other internal structures. Eye trauma reconstruction is customized to the specific injury and may involve repairing wounds, addressing traumatic cataracts, repositioning lens implants, or restoring damaged anatomy to protect the eye and improve visual function.
Iris Repair
Iris repair can help restore the pupil’s shape and function after trauma, previous surgery, or other structural damage. Treatment may improve glare, light sensitivity, distorted vision, or cosmetic concerns caused by an irregular or enlarged pupil. In some cases, iris repair is performed alongside another reconstructive procedure.
