Ophthalmology Services
Mid North Coast Eye Clinic has a strong commitment to advancing the practice of ophthalmology and delivering the highest quality outcomes. We carry out eye tests, diagnose, treat all eye diseases and perform eye surgery with specialty in small incision cataract surgery.
CATARACT TREATMENT
Dr. Ivan M. Young is a specialist for the treatment of Cataracts. He uses an innovative measuring equipment (Swept Source Optical Coherence Tomography) to achieve precise eye measurements. Our innovative technology can assess and improve eye health, achieving the best possible outcomes for patients.
DIABETIC EYE DISEASE TREATMENT
This is a group of eye problems that can affect people who have diabetes. Conditions include diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema, cataracts and glaucoma. Over time, diabetes can cause damage to the eyes, leading to poor vision or even blindness.
MACULAR DEGENERATION TREATMENT
For wet age-related macular degeneration, we use optical coherence tomography and fluorescein angiography for diagnosis. We use intravitreal injections, lasers and Visudyne therapy for treatment.
GLAUCOMA TREATMENT AND SURGERY
We use drops, tablets, lasers and surgery to treat glaucoma.
VITREOUS FLOATERS
Treatment of vitreous floaters with specialised laser.
Oculoplastic Treatment and Surgery
Mid North Coast Eye Clinic provides oculoplastic treatment for droopy eyelids and eyebrows, eyelid malposition, eyelid cancers, globe cancers and watery eye. We use conventional surgery and the Ellman Radio Surgical process for oculoplastic surgery.
PTOSIS / BLEPHAROPLASTY
Dr. Ivan M. Young performs upper eyelid levator muscle surgery by strengthening the muscle. Lid drooping can also be improved by removing skin or fat tissue from the upper lid.

Oculoplastic treatment and surgery for eyelid that turned away from the eye. Surgery usually involves tightening of the lid with or without placement of the skin.
DACRYOCYSTORHINOSTOMY (DCR)
Dacryocystorhinostomy or DCR is the treatment of blockage of the tear duct.
