Advanced Glaucoma Diagnosis and Treatment in East Brunswick, NJ

Advanced Glaucoma Services in East Brunswick, NJ

Glaucoma is often called the "Silent Thief of Sight" because it can damage your vision so gradually you may not notice symptoms until irreversible loss has occurred. At Ophthalmic Consultants of NJ in East Brunswick, NJ, our board-certified ophthalmologist, Dr. Michael Su, specializes in the early detection, comprehensive management, and advanced surgical treatment of all forms of glaucoma. Our mission is simple: to preserve your vision and protect your long-term eye health using the latest technology and personalized care.

What is Glaucoma and Why is Early Detection Crucial?

Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that damage the optic nerve, the critical cable connecting your eye to your brain. This damage is typically caused by elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) resulting from a buildup of fluid in the front part of your eye.

Because vision loss from glaucoma cannot be restored, regular, comprehensive eye exams are the single most important step in prevention. Our East Brunswick, NJ clinic utilizes advanced diagnostic tools—far beyond a simple puff test—to measure, track, and analyze your risk factors.

Your Personalized Glaucoma Treatment Plan

We understand that managing glaucoma is a lifelong partnership. Our ophthalmology experts in Central New Jersey offer evidence-based treatments tailored to the specific type and stage of your condition, focusing on safely lowering your eye pressure.

1. Medical Management (Glaucoma Drops)

For many patients, glaucoma is effectively managed with prescription eye drops or oral medications designed to either decrease fluid production in the eye or improve fluid drainage. We work closely with you to find the most effective medication regimen with minimal side effects.

2. Glaucoma Laser Procedures

Laser procedures are minimally invasive and often performed right here in our office as a primary treatment or an addition to eye drops. These options include Laser Peripheral Iridotomy (LPI) which is used to treat or prevent narrow-angle or angle-closure glaucoma by creating a tiny opening in the iris to improve fluid flow.
