Why Broward Eye Center and Dr. Berger?

Dr. Berger is an ophthalmologist and it is important to make sure you are seeing the right eye care professional when it's time to "get your eyes checked."
An ophthalmologist — Eye M.D. — is a medical doctor who specializes in eye and vision care. Ophthalmologists differ from optometrists and opticians in their levels of training and in what they can diagnose and treat. As a medical doctor who has completed college and at least eight years of additional medical training, an ophthalmologist is licensed to practice medicine and surgery. An ophthalmologist diagnoses and treats all eye diseases, performs eye surgery and prescribes and fits eyeglasses and contact lenses to correct vision problems. Many ophthalmologists are also involved in scientific research on the causes and cures for eye diseases and vision disorders.
Safeguard your vision. See the right eye care professional at the right time.We all depend on our vision in more ways that we may realize. Without healthy vision, our ability to work, play, drive or even recognize a face can be drastically affected. Many factors can affect our eyesight, including other health problems such as high blood pressure or diabetes. Having a family member with eye disease can make you more prone to having that condition as well. Sight-stealing eye disease can appear at any time. Very often they are unnoticeable at first and are difficult to detect. That's why it is so important to see an ophthalmologist for a complete medical eye exam by age 40, and then as often as prescribed.
