Here are some factors to consider when selecting a glaucoma specialist:
Credentials, Qualifications and Experience
Ensure the specialist is a board-certified ophthalmologist with additional training or specialization in glaucoma. Look for affiliations with reputable medical organizations and societies related to ophthalmology and glaucoma. All of our surgeons are board certified and fellowship trained with affiliations at prestigious organizations like the Scheie Eye Institute.
Consider the specialist’s experience in diagnosing and treating glaucoma. More experienced specialists like ours have encountered a broader range of cases. Feel free to ask us about the number of glaucoma patients our doctors have treated and their success rates. We want our patients to have all possible knowledge about their eye conditions and treatments.
Referrals and Recommendations
Seek referrals from your primary care physician or optometrist. Ask friends, family, or colleagues for recommendations based on their personal experiences with glaucoma specialists. We feel confident that many of them will recommend our practice and our doctors to you.
Check online reviews and testimonials to gauge patient satisfaction and experiences with the specialist. Look for patterns in reviews regarding communication, bedside manner, and the effectiveness of treatments.
Communication Style
While choosing an experienced doctor is very important, it is just as important to have a doctor you “click” with. Choose a specialist who communicates clearly, listens to your concerns, and explains treatment options in a way you can understand. Ensure the specialist takes the time to answer your questions and address any uncertainties you may have.
Our glaucoma specialists often collaborate with a patient’s other healthcare professionals, such as general practitioners, cardiologists, or neurologists, to provide comprehensive care if needed.

In addition to our Wyomissing office, we have several other convenient locations and you can visit us at any of them.
