Dr. Howell has been performing cataract surgery in Amarillo since 1964. In the 70's he became proficient in the additional insertion of intraocular lenses (IOL's) after the cataract was removed. The use of IOL's revolutionized cataract surgery. This eliminated the need for the thick cataract glasses which were necessary to correct the vision after removal of cataracts in most older patients. This new technique allowed the patient to have the same or better vision than they had before cataracts developed. Dr Howell is a charter member of the American Society for Cataract & Refractive Surgery which pioneered the use of IOL's in America.

Dr. Howell performs corneal transplant surgery on patients when needed. A thorough eye examination must be performed to determine that need. If you suspect a corneal problem for you, a friend, or someone you love, call Amarillo Eye Care Center

to make an appointment for an examination.
