Glaucoma Monitoring & Management in Queens
Personalised, evidence-based care from Dr. Tatyana Katz, OD at our Queens office — with the unhurried attention your eyes deserve.
Guarding Against Silent Vision Loss
Glaucoma rarely announces itself — it can take peripheral vision slowly, without pain or warning. At our Queens office, Dr. Tatyana Katz, OD uses her physician-level training to detect glaucoma early and manage it steadily over time, with clear communication for every patient, including our Spanish-speaking community.
Detection & Ongoing Care
- Eye-Pressure Measurement — Consistent, reliable readings at every visit.
- Optic-Nerve Imaging — Detailed scans that reveal early nerve damage before symptoms begin.
- Peripheral Vision Testing — Visual field mapping to detect and track any loss.
- Treatment & Monitoring — Pressure-lowering drops with regular checks to confirm they are working.
Care That Stays With You
Managing glaucoma well means consistent follow-up for years. Dr. Katz sets your baseline, keeps a steady monitoring schedule, and coordinates with surgical specialists if that step is ever needed — continuing to oversee your care throughout.
Frequently Asked Questions
If I cannot feel glaucoma, how is it found?
Through testing — eye pressure, optic-nerve imaging, and visual fields. That is why routine exams are so important, especially as you get older.
Is information available in Spanish?
Yes. We take care to explain glaucoma and its management clearly to Spanish-speaking patients, and the website is available in Spanish.
My parent has glaucoma — am I at risk?
Family history raises your risk. Let our Queens team know so Dr. Katz can monitor your optic nerves on an appropriate schedule.
