Eye Care
Our Eye Care Centre, located in our Bowmanville hospital, is a regional centre of excellence bringing together a highly specialized health care team to help people regain clearer vision.
Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery is the removal of the natural lens of the eye that over time has become “cloudy”, making it difficult to see. During cataract surgery, a patient’s cloudy natural lens is removed and replaced with a synthetic or artificial lens to restore vision.
Oculoplastics
Oculoplastics is a type of surgery involving the eyelids, tear ducts and face.
Cataract Surgery and Occuplastics are offered at our Eye Care Centre at our Bowmanville site.

Retinal Surgery
Retinal Surgery is used to treat conditions affecting the highly specialized tissues lining the innermost portion of the eye. The retina contains millions of specialized photoreceptor cells called rods and cones that convert light rays into electrical signals that are transmitted to the brain through the optic nerve.
Retinal surgeons specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of a large variety of conditions such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal detachments.
