Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
The diagnosis of glaucoma can often be nuanced and requires meticulous attention to detail over time. Given that glaucoma is a progressive condition, there are situations where the diagnosis will not be possible until your doctor has had time to follow you over time. Typically in this situation, your doctor will identify you as a “glaucoma suspect” and follow you closely to ensure you are treated if you show any clear signs of glaucoma in the future.

Laser Eye Surgery
LASIK, an acronym for Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis, is the most common refractive procedure. Using targeted laser beam energy, Lasik reshapes the cornea so that light rays are focused more precisely on the retina. As a result, patients can now have clear, sharp vision without the need for glasses or contacts. Lasik can correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Our doctors perform laser vision correction to give patients a better quality of life.
Cataracts
The vast majority of cataracts are simply due to aging and develop slowly over a lifetime. Other contributing factors, which may accelerate cataract formation include...
Cataract Surgery
A cataract is the gradual clouding of the natural crystalline lens within the eye. Cataract surgery is the procedure in which this clouded lens is removed and replaced with a new, clear lens to restore vision.
Eye Exam
Flashes and floaters can be alarming. Usually, however, an eye examination will confirm that they are harmless and do not require any treatment.

He attended the University of Redlands where he earned his Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts degrees. He went on to graduate school on an NIH fellowship to study Molecular Biology at Tufts University and Immunology at the University of Pennsylvania. Turning his attention to medicine took him to UCLA, where he earned his Doctor of Medicine degree. He completed an internship in internal medicine at Pacific Presbyterian Hospital in San Francisco and a residency and chief residency in Ophthalmology at Yale-New Haven Hospital.

Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetes is a disease that affects blood vessels throughout the body, particularly vessels in the kidneys and eyes. Patients with diabetes are at a higher risk of developing eye conditions as a complication of their disease. Diabetic-related eye problems develop from high blood sugar levels, which can cause damage to blood vessels. When diabetes affects the blood vessels in the eyes, it is called diabetic retinopathy.

Ultrasound
Ocular ultrasound — Dilation isn’t necessary here, but as with OCT the patient sits upright and rests their forehead on a support. The ultrasound instrument is then placed against the front of your eye to scan it. You sit with eyes closed. As you move your eyeballs the eyes are scanned.
MRI
A specialist will carefully examine the eye area to evaluate what may be an orbital tumor. Symptoms and medical history are also reviewed. Additionally, the doctor may order imaging such as CT scan, MRI, or ultrasound to observe the detailed aspects of the orbital area. A biopsy may be performed. However, an experienced specialist may discern the characteristics of a tumor using imaging and their physical examination alone.

Plastic Surgeons

Botox
Many skin imperfections including excess skin, acne scarring, age spots, wrinkles and sun damage can be treated by Dr. Cockerham with procedures such as BOTOX
Eyelid Surgery
Blepharoplasty is typically deemed a cosmetic procedure. That said, there is sometimes a need for eyelid surgery. When blepharoplasty is performed due to vision obstruction or other physical or functional (not cosmetic) problems, it is referred to as functional blepharoplasty. In the case of functional blepharoplasty, the procedure to reduce redundant eyelid tissue may be covered by insurance. It may be necessary to meet certain pre-surgery requirements to obtain this coverage. Together, you and your doctor can determine if you may be a candidate for insurance-covered functional blepharoplasty.
Blepharoplasty
In general, blepharoplasty surgery is performed using the same techniques to achieve cosmetic goals as it is to achieve functional improvements. The primary difference between the two terms is that functional blepharoplasty is performed to address eyelid sagging that is causing some type of functional issue. For example, when there is redundant tissue on the upper eyelids, where functional blepharoplasty is performed, this tissue may fold over in a way that causes friction. This rubbing of the tissue can lead to persistent skin irritation. Another thing that functional blepharoplasty might improve is comfort. Many people who are living with significant upper eyelid hooding instinctively raise their eyebrows to create more comfort. The constant use of the muscles near the eyebrows can result in discomfort or even headaches. The most common reason we see patients for functional blepharoplasty is that their upper eyelids, one or both of them, are drooping down over the eyelashes or over the eye itself. This can cause discomfort and also visual impairment. Through functional blepharoplasty, the upper eyelid is lifted through precise trimming, removing the obstacle to good vision.
Cosmetic Surgery
Most recently, Dr. Kim has broadened his practice to include premium lens technology and cosmetic surgery of the eyelids. He is proud to offer Juvederm and Botox for those wanting a more youthful appearance. Dr. Kim is available for routine eye care and surgical consultations in Stockton, Manteca and now in Modesto. He continues to serve on the adjunct clinical faculty at Stanford University School of Medicine.

Skin Cancer
Several different kinds of skin cancer can develop on the eyelids. They are commonly referred to as eyelid cancer, and include basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, sebaceous carcinoma, and melanoma.
Cyst
Ulcer
The front portion of the eye is covered with a thin, transparent membrane called the cornea, which protects the interior of the eye. If there is a break or defect in the surface layer of the cornea, called the epithelium, and damage to the underlying stroma, a corneal ulcer results. The ulcer is usually caused by microorganisms, which gain access to the stroma through the break in the epithelium.
Eczema
Allergic conjunctivitis may occur alongside seasonal allergy symptoms when pollen counts are high. This form of pink eye may also coincide with intense eye itching, asthma, eczema, or hay fever.
Lesions
An orbital tumor is an abnormal growth in the area around the eye. Some are cancerous and some are benign. Examples of different types of orbital tumors include vascular lesions that form from blood vessels, cysts, neurogenic (nerve) tumors, and lymphomas. An orbital tumor may also be a secondary tumor that has metastasized from another area such as the cranium or sinuses.
