Medical Treatment of Ocular Disorders
Our ophthalmology services extend to managing various eye disorders, including cataracts, diabetic eye disease and age-related macular degeneration.

We aim to maintain and enhance your vision and health through personalized care plans.
Comprehensive Eye Exams
If you’ve been noticing changes in your vision—whether it’s difficulty reading, blurry distance vision, eye strain, or just the feeling that something isn’t quite right—a comprehensive eye exam is your first step toward understanding what’s happening and finding solutions. Vision changes can occur for many reasons and at any stage of life, from simple refractive errors that glasses can easily correct to more complex conditions that benefit from early detection and treatment. Our experienced ophthalmologist conducts thorough comprehensive eye exams right here at Reedsburg Area Medical Center, using advanced diagnostic equipment to evaluate not just your vision, but the overall health of your eyes. Like a detailed health check-up for your eyes, a comprehensive exam provides a complete picture of your eye health, helping identify any issues and create a clear path forward to protect and improve your vision.
If you’re experiencing cloudy or blurry vision due to cataracts, you’re not alone—cataracts are one of the most common eye conditions, affecting millions of people as they age. The good news is that cataract surgery is a highly successful, routine procedure that can restore clear vision and dramatically improve your quality of life. Our experienced ophthalmologist, Dr. Douglas Bull, performs cataract surgery right here at Reedsburg Area Medical Center, combining advanced surgical techniques with the convenience and comfort of receiving care close to home. Like replacing a foggy window with a crystal-clear one, cataract surgery removes the clouded natural lens of your eye and replaces it with a clear artificial lens, helping you see the world with renewed clarity.
Glaucoma Treatment
If you’ve been diagnosed with glaucoma, it’s natural to have concerns about this eye condition that can affect your vision over time. Glaucoma is often called the “silent thief of sight” because it typically develops gradually without noticeable symptoms in its early stages, but with proper treatment, vision loss can be slowed or prevented entirely. Our experienced ophthalmologist provides comprehensive glaucoma care right here at Reedsburg Area Medical Center, offering personalized treatment plans that may include prescription eye drops, laser therapy, or surgical options depending on your specific needs. Maintaining your eye health is an ongoing process, and glaucoma treatment involves continuing care and monitoring to protect your precious vision for years to come.
Diabetic Eye Care
If you have diabetes, you may already know that managing your blood sugar is crucial for your overall health, but you might not realize how important specialized eye care is for protecting your vision. Diabetes can affect the delicate blood vessels in your eyes, potentially leading to serious complications like diabetic retinopathy, often without any early warning signs or symptoms. Dr. Douglas Bull, an Ophthalmologist, provides specialized diabetic eye care right here at Reedsburg Area Medical Center, using advanced imaging technology to monitor your eye health and detect any changes before they affect your vision. Regular diabetic eye exams help catch potential problems early when they’re most treatable, ensuring your eyes stay healthy for years to come.
Macular Degeneration Treatment
If you’ve been experiencing changes in your central vision—such as blurriness, dark spots, or difficulty seeing fine details when reading or recognizing faces—you may be dealing with macular degeneration, a common eye condition that affects millions of people, particularly as they age. While a macular degeneration diagnosis can feel overwhelming, the encouraging news is that with proper treatment and monitoring, many people maintain good quality vision and continue enjoying their daily activities. With decades of experience, our ophthalmologist, Dr. Douglas Bull, provides comprehensive macular degeneration care right here at Reedsburg Area Medical Center, offering the latest treatment options tailored to your specific type and stage of the condition. Right here at Reedsburg Area Medical Center, our experienced ophthalmologist can assess your eyes and develop a treatment plan for macular degeneration that focuses on protecting your central vision—the part of your sight that’s most crucial for the activities that matter most to you.
Oculoplastic Surgery
Oculoplastic surgery combines the medical expertise of ophthalmology with specialized surgical techniques to treat conditions affecting the eyelids and surrounding eye area. Whether you’re dealing with droopy eyelids that block your vision, excess skin that causes discomfort, or lesions that need removal, these procedures serve a dual purpose by addressing legitimate medical concerns while simultaneously improving your appearance. Our experienced ophthalmologist performs oculoplastic surgeries right here at Reedsburg Area Medical Center, including procedures to remove excess eyelid skin and treat both benign and malignant eyelid lesions. Patients often find that what initially brought them in for medical reasons—such as impaired vision from sagging eyelids—results in the added benefit of looking more alert and refreshed, making oculoplastic surgery a comprehensive solution for both health and aesthetic concerns.
