David and Ilene Flaum Eye Institute

  • Flaum Eye Institute recently became the first center in the Finger Lakes region to use Catalys Precision Laser technology, which allows physicians to perform customized cataract surgery with much greater precision than the traditional manual technique.
  • We introduced the tiniest device ever approved by the FDA – called the iStent Trabecular Micro-Bypass Stent – to help prevent the effects of glaucoma, one of the leading causes of blindness in the U.S.
  • Our Patient – and Family – Centered Care (PFCC) committee recently focused its attention on the pediatric wing of our main faculty practice clinic. Patients who visit our pediatric ophthalmologists are greeted by new artwork in the waiting area, and a library of popular children’s movies has been added for use in exam rooms to help families pass time while waiting for a child’s eyes to dilate.
