Zimm Cataract & Laser Center

General Practitioners

Primary Care
In addition to the treatment that you receive from your ophthalmologist for diabetic eye disease, it’s important to manage diabetes with the help of a primary care physician.

Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness in people over 60. In its early stages, it has no symptoms, which is why glaucoma is often referred to as the “silent thief of sight.”
Ophthalmology
Dr. Zimm is a board-certified ophthalmologist (eye doctor and surgeon). In addition to medical school and his ophthalmology residency, Dr. Zimm is fellowship trained in advanced cataract and refractive surgery at Michigan State University.
Macular Degeneration
It is the leading cause of vision loss for people aged 60 and above, which is why it is often referred to as age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
Laser Eye Surgery
While LASIK is the most well-known of these procedures, there are many types of laser vision correction surgeries available, including LASEK, PRK, and more.
Cataracts
Zimm Cataract and Laser Center is dedicated to providing exceptional care to our patients. Our skilled providers and knowledgeable staff are ready to meet your eye care needs.
Cataract Surgery
ZCLC has expanded in recent years with the addition of two licensed optometrists, hiring Dr. Jessica Goller in 2019 and Dr. Krystal Fordoski in 2022. Both Optometrists (eye doctors) assist Dr. Zimm by providing medical and routine eye examinations for our patients. This allows Dr. Zimm to focus on treating complex eye problems and cataract surgery.
Eye Exam
During a comprehensive eye exam, your ophthalmologist will test for common eye diseases, assess how your eyes function together, and more. Serious health issues like diabetes and high blood pressure are often first detected during an eye exam.

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care
Thyroid
Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetes increases the risk of developing diabetic retinopathy, which is characterized by weak blood vessels in the eyes that leak or protrude into the retina. The proliferation of blood vessels on the retina itself, as a result of these blood vessels closing off over time, can result in eyesight problems.

Ultrasound
A cataract is removed through a process called Phacoemulsification. Your surgeon creates a small incision in your cornea then inserts a pen-shaped probe through that opening. The probe applies sound waves (ultrasound) to break up the cloudy lens. Next, the surgeon aspirates out the broken-up pieces and then inserts an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) implant.
Radiation Therapy
Eyelid cancer needs to be correctly diagnosed and treated with oculoplastic surgery and/or radiation therapy, depending on individual circumstances.
