The lens he has me in currently are amazing, not only can I see nice and sharp but they are so comfortable you forget your wearing them. Dr. Azman is a perfectionist and you can tell he actually cares about the health of your eyes. He always asks me, how does that look, I tell him wonderful never better, his response is oh I think we can improve that, be patient with me. In all, this place was the best thing my wife and I have ever came across in addressing my eye issues!!!Justin DeVito2024-05-30Khamirah McCants2024-05-15Two words.. Life changing! I’ve seen multiple specialists in regard to my keratoconus diagnosis, none of these specialists were able to give a reasonable solution. I did a google search and Keratoconus Specialist of MD came up and making the call was the best decision I could make! I had an appointment and after a few test Dr Azman gave me a solution that my insurance would cover!!!!!!! Amazing!!! I am beyond ecstatic I will now have be able to see with clearer vision! Thank youMary Burgess2024-03-08I was diagnosed with Keratoconus from a LASIK appointment. I was told to find a specialist to work with and I found Dr. Azman. Walking into the office, I was so concerned and worried from all the information I had googled. I worried that there was no hope for me. I walked in and was greeted with warm smiles which immediately calmed my nerves. I met with Dr. Azman who gave me immense hope, and I left with a new game plan, understanding, and team there to support me. I was told about my eye disease in November, and it is currently March using a pair of lenses that have me seeing clearer than I have ever seen in my entire life. I'm even going back in a few weeks to get a pair that will make me see EVEN BETTER. I am so grateful to have found Dr. Azman who never gives up and remains determined to get my eye sight as clear as possible. I recommend him to all who are searching for help in the Baltimore area.Cheryl Sonceau2023-12-02As an optometrist excellent vision for me is paramount. Dr. Azman and his staff's expert examination and fitting of my scleral lenses for keratoconus provides me the excellent vision that I need to examine my patients. I have been fitted with scleral lenses by 4 optometrists over the past 10+ years. Dr. Azman is the best! His knowledge, experience and expertise can not be matched. The time and money spent by me as a patient to have my vision miraculously improved by scleral lenses is more than worth it! My personal and professional life have been blessed by Dr. Azman and his staff.Kim McGreevy2023-08-11Azman Eye Care Specialists are absolutely top notch! This is hands down the happiest I have ever been with any eye care specialist. The office is extremely professional, clean, and efficient. The staff is friendly and helpful. Above all of that, this is the best treatment for my keratoconus I have ever had. Not only was it the easiest eye exam I have ever had, the resulting improvement to my vision is remarkable. I am more comfortable and have clearer vision than I can ever remember and I am 53 years-old. It's obvious upon your first visit that this practice stays educated and on the cutting edge of technology. Dr. Benjamin Azman clearly wants the best for his patients and will do what is necessary to achieve the best outcome. It's obvious that Dr. Azman and the entire office staff love what they do and take pride in treating their patients and providing them with solutions to increase their quality of life.Charles Avery Thomas2023-07-20This is a very professional practice. Their attention to detail is unparalleled. My routine and emergency exams have been conducted with the latest technology. I feel that my Keratoconus needs are being meet with the highest standards!Ashley Robinson2023-07-11My 3.5 year journey to getting contacts has ended thanks to Dr. Azman. Dr. Azman and his staff are simply amazing and to be honest, that doesn’t give them the fair credit they deserve. Both he and his staff are very personable, reachable, professional, and relatable. I have to admit that at first I was a bit weary about having to drive 2 hours to Baltimore for contacts, but after my first visit my anxiety was put to ease (mind you it only took 3 and I walked away with contacts I could see in). Before my visit, I was contacted by his office so they could get my past medical records. Not only did he get them, he reviewed them. I have ‘special eyes’ and finding someone who can treat them is a miracle. I am 33 and at the age of 7 I was diagnosed with uveitis and had both lenses on my eyes removed. I’m legally blind and have very poor vision in my left eye even when corrected by machines. Dr. Azman took the time to examine my eyes and suggested the best product that would maximize vision for both. While I dismiss my left eye as a place saver, he treated it the complete opposite and gave it the care it needed. To my surprise, during the second visit, I was provided a pair of contacts that fit and were usable. I was blown away because this was only a trial pair based off our first measurements. He did his tweaking and on the third visit, I walked out with contacts that I could fully function with. I cried tears of joy. The contacts I was wearing prior to him were over 5 years old and had a chip on it and were nowhere close to the right prescription. I had been going to other eye doctors for contacts for over 3 years and had no luck. I was literally about to give up but one day I randomly googled ‘sclera lens doctors in Maryland’. He popped up and the rest is history. Thanks to him, I can see. Comfortably. Correctly. But don’t take my word for it. Check him out. If you have special eye needs or just eye needs in general, give his office a call. He has been a blessing for me and hopefully for you as well.Toni Session2023-03-27Hello. It has been a blessing finding Dr. Benjamin. He has given me the gift of sight with the correct contacts. I have been through so many doctors and contacts (toric, hybrid, gas permeable) and none have worked. The Schlera lens that Dr. Benjamin prescribed me have been a Godsend. I recommend Dr. Benjamin. He and the staff provide excellent customer service and make you feel at home. Joanne is awesome.Dave Moluski2023-03-22I had a very difficult case due to the fact that my corneal transplants were done in 1980 and 1990 I was losing contacts as fast as I could buy them I went to see Dr. Azman and he quickly found a solution to my problem by fitting me with scleral lenses He is well-connected with other doctors, which makes the process easy and the communication outstanding He even assisted my eye surgeon during Covid when I had a rejection and my eye. Surgeons office was closed. His attention to detail has allowed my eyesight to drastically increase I would recommend him to anyone
Keratoconus Experts Near You
Servicing the Greater Baltimore Area
Under the esteemed leadership of Dr. Irwin Azman and Dr. Benjamin Azman, Keratoconus Specialists of MD is a beacon of hope for individuals facing the challenges of Keratoconus, a progressive eye condition marked by the thinning and outward bulging of the cornea. Our office is devoted to offering unmatched concierge care and pioneering treatment options, aiming to restore and enhance the visual quality and comfort of our patients.
Keratoconus often manifests through vision distortion, including symptoms like glare, halos, double vision, and starbursts, profoundly affecting everyday life. Despite its significant impact, many sufferers remain without a diagnosis or proper treatment, partly due to the gradual progression of the condition. Addressing the critical need for specialized attention, Keratoconus Specialists of MD prioritizes early diagnosis and personalized management strategies, along with delivering cutting-edge solutions tailored to the unique needs of each individual’s corneal structure.
Our facility is a testament to our dedication to excellence, equipped with advanced technologies such as wavefront technology for custom-designed lenses, OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) for precise imaging, and impression-based molded lenses like EyePrint PRO, meticulously crafted to conform to the exact contours of your eye. These sophisticated tools empower us to offer a range of personalized solutions including specialty lenses for keratoconus, scleral lenses, and PROSE, ensuring that each patient receives treatment that is as unique as their eyes.
Understanding the profound influence of vision on life, Keratoconus Specialists of MD is committed to not just meeting, but exceeding our patients’ expectations through compassionate, individualized care. Our suite of comprehensive services is thoughtfully curated to confront the distinct challenges posed by Keratoconus, providing relief and clarity to our patients.
We believe in the transformative power of patient education and collaborative care. Our dedicated experts invest time in thoroughly discussing your condition, exploring treatment options, and addressing your concerns, ensuring that you are well-informed and confident about your care plan.
The treatment of keratoconus is a time-consuming process that many doctors are not willing to undertake. For proper and effective treatment of keratoconus our doctors stay current on the latest keratoconus management and treatment options and have the experience and compassion needed to restore your vision.
Our philosophy is to provide the highest level of patient care with all the keratoconus treatment options. With keratoconus contact lens designs we are successful with providing improved vision and comfort, far beyond yesterday’s RGP and other lenses, and delaying and/or preventing corneal transplantation.
We are now able to detect the presence of keratoconus well before subjective symptoms develop. Wavefront Corneal Topography, Aberrometry, and Pentacam Keratoconus imagery and measurements have become the gold standard of care in diagnosing and the management of keratoconus. Utilizing new technology, ophthalmic instruments now capture images of the shape of the cornea together with the entire optical system by taking tens of thousands of data points. The results are instantly analyzed and Wavefront topography maps are generated. These images provide Dr. Azman with a detailed map of the eye, similar to a fine detailed fingerprint. The eye-map displays the location and severity of any corneal distortion and high order aberrations (HOA). With this data and our experience a proper fit is assured.
Keratoconus treatment options can include Corneal Crosslinking (CXL), Intacts, corneal transplantation and other procedures that our surgeons perform. Keratoconus contact lens options can include soft lenses, hybrid lenses (SynergEyes), Scleral lenses, PVR PROSE, and EyePrint PRO. With these lens options and our experience, excellent visual results for patients with keratoconus is now an option. Many patients who have seen multiple specialists and have not had success travel from around the country to receive the proper care from Keratoconus Specialists of Maryland. Know your options.
If you are grappling with the effects of Keratoconus and seeking solutions for symptoms like glare, halos, double vision, or starbursts, don’t hesitate to contact us. Call to schedule your appointment today and embark on a journey to reclaim the clarity and comfort of your vision. At Keratoconus Specialists of MD, we are deeply committed to your vision and your journey towards a brighter, clearer future.
