Ophthalmology and Patient Care Approach
Ophthalmology combines medical diagnosis with surgical treatment for conditions affecting the eyes and vision. Some eye disorders cause noticeable symptoms, while others, including certain forms of glaucoma, may progress gradually and require regular examinations to identify changes early.
Dr. Campbell’s additional fellowship training in glaucoma gives him focused experience with diseases involving elevated eye pressure and optic nerve damage. His practice also includes cataract management, an area in which treatment may progress from vision monitoring and prescription changes to surgery when cloudy lenses begin interfering significantly with everyday activities.
For patients with diabetes or other long-term medical conditions, regular eye examinations may also help identify retinal changes that can threaten vision.
