I am so thankful for your wonderful care. Without your advanced testing, I could have had extensive damage that would have been permanent. With your help, I am able to manage my condition with just eye drops. -- Laura Kattenbraker
The Doctors at Pepose Vision Institute have been helping glaucoma patients like Laura for over 15 years. And we've got the best track record of early detection and preservation of functional vision of any
glaucoma provider in the St. Louis area. This translates into:
- Early intervention, as needed, to minimize vision loss: little to no discomfort
- Less need for expensive, messy medications to maintain quality vision
- Minimized risk of permanently compromised eyesight, blurry vision or loss of side vision
- Patients who are happy that their glaucoma is being meticulously managed to ensure a lifetime of trouble-free sight
How do we do it?
- Experience
- Pepose Vision Institute is a leader in the use of the most advanced "cold laser" to lower pressure inside the eye
- Because the vision damage from glaucoma cannot be reversed, the best approach is early detection and treatment. That's why it's important to know that Pepose Vision Institute is one of the nation's leaders in developing the most precise tools to measure true eye pressure, and is the only bi-state provider to offer these advanced tests to its patients
- Testing
- Each patient undergoes an intensive state-of-the-art testing process, directly supervised by our surgeons who then create a precise, personalized treatment plan
- Technology
- PVI uses numerous diagnostic devices to assess the extent of glaucoma damage and to confirm each test result
- We collaborate with eye technology industry leaders on "next generation" diagnostics
- We offer on-site cold laser treatment which may reduce the need for lifelong use of eye drops and other medications
- Lifetime Commitment
- Our surgeons monitor the progress of your eyes for the rest of your life to maintain the very best vision outcome possible
While no one can promise perfect vision, the Pepose Vision Institute is dedicated to doing everything it can to assure patients' lifelong quality vision.
"We're dedicated to protecting, preserving, and enhancing our patients' vision." -- Dr. Jay Pepose
