Managing Ocualr Diseases in Clifton

Some of the most severe threats to your vision don’t come with early warning signs. That’s why at New Jersey Eyes, we focus on early detection, consistent monitoring, and compassionate management of chronic eye conditions.

Patients across Clifton, Montclair, and Passaic County trust our eye doctor and team to guide them through the ups and downs of long-term vision care with honesty, experience, and a whole lot of heart.

Healthy Eyes Start with Early Detection

Many eye diseases develop gradually, with little or no symptoms until damage has already been done. That’s why comprehensive eye exams are so important, especially if you have risk factors like diabetes, high blood pressure, or a family history of glaucoma or macular degeneration.

At New Jersey Eyes, we use advanced diagnostic technology to monitor your eye health with precision and care. And if something changes, we’ll explain what it means and make sure you feel supported, whether that means managing it here or referring you to a Clifton eye specialist.

Diabetic Eye Doctor in Clifton, NJ

Living with diabetes means paying extra attention to your vision, even if your eyesight still feels perfectly fine. Diabetic eye conditions can damage the retina's blood vessels, which often go unnoticed until vision starts to fade.

We provide diabetic eye exams that include high-resolution retinal imaging and OCT scans to catch early signs of diabetic retinopathy and other complications. With regular visits, Dr. Bruce Mazie can closely monitor any changes and help protect your vision before symptoms appear. And if we ever see signs of progression, we’ll coordinate care with your primary physician or specialist.

Glaucoma Management

Glaucoma is often called the “silent thief of sight” because it can cause permanent vision loss with little to no warning. Our glaucoma monitoring eye doctor in Montclair screens for the disease during every comprehensive eye exam.

Our glaucoma management includes:

  • Intraocular pressure (IOP) testing

  • OCT scans to assess the optic nerve

  • Visual field testing to detect changes in peripheral vision

If glaucoma is caught early, it can be managed with regular monitoring, lifestyle adjustments, and treatment. And if you ever need surgical care, we’ll co-manage the process carefully.

Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) affects the central part of your vision, the part you use for reading, driving, and recognizing faces. It’s a progressive condition, but like many others, early detection can help slow its impact. If you’re over 60 or have a family history of AMD, we recommend routine eye exams to help preserve your central vision and catch early signs.

At New Jersey Eyes, we monitor for subtle changes using retinal imaging and lifestyle-focused care strategies. If needed, we can refer you to a macular degeneration specialist in Clifton. 

Cataract Detection & Co-Management

Cataracts are a normal part of aging, and while they don’t always require immediate treatment, we’ll watch them closely over time. As the natural lens of the eye becomes clouded, you may notice trouble with night driving, glare, or blurry vision.

We provide clear guidance on when cataracts begin to impact your quality of life and when it’s time to consider surgery. If surgery becomes necessary, we’ll refer you to a local ophthalmologist and provide complete co-management to support your recovery.
