Patients suffering from vision problems, cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, pink eye, diabetic eye problems, and more can turn to the experts at LIOC for premium care. They take a holistic approach to medicine, offering state-of-the-art equipment and a top-notch, highly trained staff.
Patients are the number one priority for providers who maintain exceptional customer service. The LIOC team is one of Long Island’s best, with many years of experience and top-rated reviews.
They offer vision evaluations, eyeglass prescriptions, dry eye treatment, and pediatric eye care services. They also offer cataract and LASIK surgery, glaucoma and macular degeneration treatments, diabetic eye care, pink eye treatment, and nutritional supplements.
