In a community as diverse as Woodhaven, diabetes and high blood pressure are widespread — and both can quietly damage vision before you feel a thing. Dr. Tatyana Katz, OD provides careful diabetic and hypertensive eye exams at our Queens office, with guidance offered warmly and clearly, including for our Spanish-speaking patients.
Because early diabetic changes cause no symptoms, the only way to catch them in time is to look. Dr. Katz sets a baseline with retinal imaging and a yearly (or closer) schedule based on your health, so problems are managed before they threaten your sight.
