Montgomery Eye Care is a privately owned, full-service optometric practice and on-site ophthalmic dispensary. It is our intention to treat each and every patient as we would treat members of our own family.

We believe that if we treat each patient with the care, consideration, and respect that we would like to have when we are in need of professional care, we cannot go wrong.

We are confident that if you drop by our Montgomery Center office, you will immediately feel at home amidst our family pictures and memorabilia.

A Pachymeter: a device to measure the thickness of the cornea. Now a part of routine care for patients with a family history of or other risk factors for glaucoma.


Retinal Thickness Analyzer by Talia

The RTA is a unique and innovative diagnostic instrument that is used to assess the health of the retina (tissue in the back of your eye that changes light into electrical impulses) and optic nerve (transmits the electrical impulses to the visual cortex in the brain).

The RTA scans the interior of your eye with a specially designed laser. The measurements taken by the RTA are analyzed by a computer and used to create a map of your retina and optic nerve.

The maps of the retina and optic nerve allow detection of the damage caused by diseases affecting the retina and optic nerve at much earlier stages. It also allows much greater precision when tracking the progression of the retinal & optic nerve diseases.

Three diseases that affect a growing number of people as we age are Glaucoma, Diabetes and Macular Degeneration. Each of these diseases is capable of causing life changing vision loss; fortunately they also respond to treatment.

Glaucoma is a disease that can cause thinning of the retina and/or loss of the optic nerve fiber. The loss of the nerve fiber layer produces defects in your peripheral (side) vision during the early stages of the disease. If the Glaucoma remains untreated, it may progress to total vision loss. The RTA helps Dr. Boname to detect Glaucoma earlier than conventional testing.

Diabetic Retinopathy is also a major cause of blindness and afflicts individuals with both Type I and Type II diabetes. Diabetic Retinopathy is characterized by retinal edema, which is mapped by the RTA, allowing your doctor to detect and track the progression and severity of the disease.

Age-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD) is a disease that affects your central vision. It can limit your ability to read, drive or perform other daily activities that require fine vision. The RTA will assist Dr. Boname in diagnosing and tracking ARMD so that treatment may be initiated before significant irreversible damage has occurred.
