Eye Care Services

Comprehensive Ophthalmology Care in Kinnelon, NJ

Cataract Surgery

Cloudy, blurry, or glare-sensitive vision may be caused by cataracts. We discuss surgical and lens implant options when appropriate.

Glaucoma Care

Glaucoma can damage vision before symptoms appear. A comprehensive dilated exam helps detect it and monitor optic nerve health.

Diabetic Eye Exams

Patients with diabetes should receive regular dilated eye exams to check for diabetic retinopathy and related concerns.

Macular Degeneration

Age-related macular degeneration can affect sharp central vision. Early evaluation matters when vision changes occur.

Dry Eye Treatment

Burning, stinging, redness, tearing, or fluctuating vision may signal dry eye disease or related eyelid inflammation.

LASIK & PRK Evaluations

Dr. Shnayder evaluates whether patients may be candidates for laser vision correction options such as LASIK or PRK.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Shnayder is an expert in eye care and has helped me through a great deal of eye issues. He is focused on eye health and doing the best treatments and providing the best care possible. I recommend him for his expertise and clinical knowledge. His staff is caring and attentive in this busy office, which is a tall order but they care and do the best they can serving so many people in this densely populated area. Most notably, when I needed emergency eye care on a weekend, Dr. Shnayder was there for me immediately. I trust him and recently started SLT for eye pressure issues. SLT is a laser treatment that should not be entrusted to anyone other than an expert like Dr. Shnayder. I highly recommend him!
