Over time, our practice has become more focused. We now dedicate most of our care to:

➡️ Myopia management (slowing progressive nearsightedness)
➡️ Strabismus (eye alignment, in children and adults)
➡️ Pediatric eyelid & tear duct surgery

This allows us to spend more time on the children and families who need this level of specialized care, and to approach these problems thoughtfully and thoroughly.

If you’re unsure whether your child’s condition falls into one of these areas, our team is always happy to help guide you. Visit the 🔗. https://pedseyevip.com/book-now/

Andy had us at that smile! 👁️✨

Andy was born with ptosis, a condition that prevented his eyes from fully opening. By 3 months old, he was already compensating by tilting his chin upward just to see and using his forehead muscles to help lift his lids. When Andy visited Dr. Lichtenstein at age 2, surgery was the clear next step. A frontalis sling procedure later, and Andy's chin-up head position resolved immediately, along with a whole new look at the world. 🤍

Six months post op, he came back for a visit, and let's just say whatever 3-year-olds find funny, Andy had plenty of it.

Isla’s journey is a reminder that persistence — and a careful eye — can make all the difference. 👁️✨

Isla first came to us at 5 months old with constant tearing and discharge.
She underwent two procedures for blocked tear ducts, which helped… but not enough.

Taking a closer look, the underlying issue became clear: her lower eyelids were turned slightly inward, causing her lashes to rub against the surface of her eyes.

A brief, targeted procedure to correct this — and she’s now symptom-free. These photos are just 4 days after surgery. 🤍

Melinda's story is one every strabismus patient should hear! 👁️

Melinda had strabismus surgery as a child and achieved great alignment, but as an adult, her exotropia gradually returned. In this video, Dr. Lichtenstein walks through her case, what happened, why recurrence can occur, and how a second procedure restored her alignment beautifully.

If you or your child has questions about strabismus or eye alignment, this one is worth a watch.
