Ocular Disease Diagnosis and Treatment

Our Geriatric eyecare is driven by understanding the needs of this population in regards to service. We are happy to take our time with the older population and we typically book longer appointment slots for patients that need a slower pace during the exam. Dr. Rebarber likes to take the time to listen and even chat a little bit!

Her examination is focused on identifying the eye conditions that may arise with age, like macular degeneration, glaucoma and cataracts among others. Dr. Rebarber focuses also on identifying the manifestations of systemic medical conditions (like diabetes, hypertension and arthritis) in the eye. We have the diagnostic technology to identify glaucoma, retina and corneal problems.

Utilizing cutting edge technology, we diagnose and manage, with greater precision, diseases like Glaucoma, Macular Degeneration, Cataracts, and Diabetic Retinopathy. Earlier and more precise diagnosis means earlier treatment and better outcomes. At SightHealth Primary Eyecare, our eye doctor can take an aggressive approach to diseases that previously had few treatment options. Great advances have been made in the treatment of these diseases.

Call our St Johns office to book your eye exam.

  • Cataracts are a common cause of vision loss after age 55. Learn more about recognizing cataract symptoms, protecting your eyes and understanding cataract surgery.
  • Diabetes and vision go hand in hand. If you have diabetes, you need to know that having this systemic disease puts you at greater risk for developing vision problems.
  • Glaucoma is a condition that causes damage to your eye's optic nerve and gets worse over time, so nipping it in the bud will always be better for the person being tested.
  • The macula is the portion of the retina which provides sharp, central vision, and is involved in processing the fine details of the image. The breakdown of the macula is a disease called macular degeneration.
