More Cataract Treatment Options Now Available in Milwaukee

MILWAUKEE, April 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- As the baby boomer generation continues to age and the group increases in size, more and more people are facing challenges related to aging eyes and cataracts. Widely considered a very active group of people, baby boomers are looking for options that not only help restore the lens clouding caused by cataracts, but also improve their overall vision. 

To serve patients in the Milwaukee area, Dr. Ronald Allen, an experienced cataract and laser vision correction surgeon, has recently begun accepting cataract patients at his Visium Eye Institute office in Brookfield at 15455 W. Bluemound Road, Suite 240.

"Oftentimes patients believe their vision will improve on its own or they don't realize they have a cataract issue until the problem is very serious," said Ronald Allen, surgeon at Visium Eye Institute. "At Visium Eye Institute, we work closely with our patients to offer custom options for cataracts, as well as vision issues such as astigmatism, farsightedness and presbyopia all at one time."

Dr. Allen has been performing cataract lens replacement procedures for more than 23 years. In addition, he has performed more than 26,000 laser vision correction procedures at LasikPlus, the LASIK vision correction affiliate for Visium Eye Institute. His new partnership with Visium Eye Institute allows Dr. Allen to provide more complete vision solutions to both his LASIK and cataract patients.

"Many patients express the desire to restore their vision so that they can resume their normal work and recreational activities," said Allen. "When we explain they have the option to remove the cataracts and potentially eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses they are truly excited for the possibilities."
