💛 We Care About Your Vision
What Is AMD?

Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is one of the leading causes of vision loss in adults over 50 — and it often starts without noticeable symptoms.

👁️ What AMD Affects:
The macula is the part of your retina responsible for sharp, central vision.

⚠️ Why It Matters:
AMD can make it difficult to read, drive, or recognize faces — but early detection can help protect your sight.

✨ Key Facts:

AMD comes in two forms: Dry (most common) and Wet (more serious).

You may not notice changes right away.

Regular dilated eye exams are essential for early diagnosis.

🩺 Your Vision Matters — and we’re here to help you protect it.
Call 708-873-0088 to schedule your annual exam to stay ahead of AMD.

🎉 Welcome to the Team, Dr. Teja Alapati! 👁️✨

Ticho Eye Associates is thrilled to introduce the newest member of our team, Dr. Teja Alapati!

Dr. Alapati grew up in Huntsville, AL, and attended school in Philadelphia, earning both his undergraduate and medical degrees from the University of Pennsylvania. He went on to complete his residency at Tulane University and a prestigious cornea fellowship at the renowned Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary.

Specializing in cornea, cataract, and refractive surgery, Dr. Alapati brings exceptional expertise—and a passion for global outreach, especially in Latin America. He is also fluent in Spanish, allowing him to better serve and connect with our community.

When he’s not caring for patients, you’ll likely find him in the dance studio or out on the tennis courts. 🎾 🕺

Please join us in giving Dr. Alapati a warm Ticho Eye welcome! 👏

🩺 Don’t Skip Your Annual Eye Exam!

Did you know you can lose vision without symptoms in the early stages of diabetic eye disease?

Diabetic Retinopathy can silently damage your retina — even before your blood sugar levels seem “out of control.”

🔬 Studies show nearly 1 in 3 people with diabetes already have some retinal damage at diagnosis.

🩺 That’s why a comprehensive vision exam (not just a vision test) is key to saving your sight.

✅ Annual dilated eye exams for all diabetics — no excuses, no symptoms needed.
Protect your vision before problems begin.
