Eye Conditions

The doctors at Mid-Peninsula Ophthalmology Medical Group have helped thousands of people enjoy better vision. When you have a problem with your eyes, you know you can turn to us for help. Leading the way with new medications and surgical procedures, Mid-Peninsula Ophthalmology Medical Group can diagnose and treat a wide range of diseases and conditions. Advances in technology have impacted all aspects of vision care. Surgical procedures that once required a hospital stay and lengthy recovery are now performed by our doctors on an outpatient basis, with most patients returning to their normal activities within hours.

We continually invest in the most state-of-the-art diagnostic and surgical equipment. And our doctors go through rigorous, ongoing training to ensure that we're doing everything we can to improve our patients' vision and quality of life. We're committed to providing the most advanced care available.

For your convenience, we've developed an overview of common eye conditions. Click on any of the conditions on this page to learn more about symptoms, causes and treatments.

You know your eyes better than anyone. If they don't see, feel or look as well as you'd like them to, schedule an appointment with one of our doctors by calling 650-324-0056.

Insurance

Treatment of many eye conditions is covered by insurance, including Medicare. If you have questions about what is covered by your private healthcare insurance, contact your plan provider, or provide us with a copy of your insurance card and we'll check for you. We accept most major insurances. You can call us at 650-324-0056 with questions.

If you have questions about your Medicare coverage, call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227) to speak to a Medicare Customer Representative. You can also go to www.medicare.gov to find out more about Medicare coverage. Our staff is also available to help you determine whether the eye care you need is covered by Medicare.

Your out-of-pocket expenses for Medicare or private insurance will depend of the type of insurance you have, whether you have supplemental insurance and whether you have a deductible on your policy. We'll be glad to process all insurance claims for you. We also accept cash, personal checks, Visa and Mastercard.
