Medical Eye Care & Emergency Services
Diabetes. Glaucoma. Eye Injuries. We Treat It All.
Skip the Urgent Care. See an Eye Specialist.
Many patients don't realize that Dr. Waqar is a therapeutic optometrist licensed to treat eye diseases and injuries. Urgent care centers often lack the slit-lamp microscopes needed to see the surface of your eye.
If you have eye pain, redness, or sudden vision loss, call us immediately at (512) 268-2020. We keep daily slots open for emergencies.
Emergency Eye Care
Red Eye / Pink Eye
Whether it's bacterial, viral, or allergic, we can diagnose the exact cause and prescribe the correct medicated drops to clear it up fast.
Foreign Body Removal
Got metal, wood, or debris in your eye? Do not rub it. We have specialized tools to safely remove foreign objects and bandage the cornea to prevent scarring.
Flashes & Floaters
Seeing sudden flashing lights or new floaters? This could be a sign of a Retinal Detachment. This is a medical emergency that requires an immediate dilated exam.
Chronic Disease Management
We use hospital-grade technology (OCT and Visual Fields) to manage sight-threatening conditions.
Diabetic Eye Exams
Diabetes is the leading cause of blindness. We perform detailed retinal scans to check for bleeding or swelling. We send a full report to your Primary Care Doctor or Endocrinologist to keep your team in the loop.
Glaucoma Treatment
The "Silent Thief of Sight." We monitor your eye pressure and optic nerve health. If detected, we can treat Glaucoma with prescription eye drops to save your vision.
Plaquenil Screenings
Taking Hydroxychloroquine for Rheumatoid Arthritis or Lupus? We perform the required annual 10-2 visual field and OCT scans to monitor for retinal toxicity.
"Which Insurance Do I Use?"
It's complicated. Sometimes VSP covers medical eye issues, and sometimes Medical plans cover routine eye exams. There is no way to know for sure without checking the fine print.
We handle the paperwork for you.
Bring both your Vision (VSP/EyeMed) and Medical (BCBS/Medicare/Aetna) cards to your appointment. Our team will verify your specific benefits to determine which plan offers the best coverage for your visit.
