Best Eye Surgeons in Florida

Several eye conditions and diseases require surgery. In fact, eye surgery may not be something that you really think about. You may think that you’ll never need it, but it is a good idea to have a trusted eye doctor and surgeon who knows you and your eyes. Regular checkups are important, and if you do ever need eye surgery, you will have that relationship already established with Elmquist Eye Group. In southwest Florida, patients are fortunate to have the best eye surgeons in Florida at our Fort Myers and Cape Coral offices.

Cataract Surgery

Many of our Florida patients are over age 60 and suffer from cataracts, a condition that occurs as part of the natural aging process. If you have cataracts, you are not alone. In fact, more than 25 million Americans have cataracts. Cataracts keep growing and at some point significantly interfere with vision, and that is when you will need surgery to remove the cataract. Our Elmquist surgeons are board-certified surgeons who are specially trained in the latest bladeless laser cataract surgical techniques.

Eyelid Surgeries

We can also perform a variety of cosmetic procedures on the eyelids. Eyelid surgery is referred to as blepharoplasty, and is more commonly known as an “eyelid tuck”. With age, both upper and lower eyelids can begin to droop. Sagging on the upper eyelid can be so extensive that the skin droop blocks vision. Both male and female patients have this procedure, and patients rave about their restored youthful appearances.

Experience Matters

Regardless of whether you need a routine eye exam or eye surgery, experience matters, and you can trust our expert Elmquist team for all your eye needs. The clinical knowledge possessed by our ophthalmologists, ophthalmic surgeons and eye care professionals is unsurpassed. You may never need an eye surgeon, but if you do, the best surgeons in Florida are near you at Elmquist Eye Group. Schedule your appointment today.
