Please contact ( Dr. Brian Gillespie, Ophthalmologist Winnipeg, MB ) to enquire if this health care provider is accepting new patients. Glaucoma is an eye disease caused by a buildup of intraocular pressure (IOP). Your eyes have clear liquid that flows in and out, but if you have glaucoma, this liquid doesn’t drain properly, causing this buildup of IOP pressure. Glaucoma is a disease of the optic nerve, which is made up of nerve fibers and transmits images from the eye to your brain. If you have a condition known as ocular hypertension, which is a result of high ocular pressure, your risk of developing glaucoma increases.Your optometrist or ophthalmologist may want to lower your IOP as a preventative measure.

Our eye works a lot like a camera. In order for us to see clearly, the Cornea has light has to be focused by a lens. We are all born with a lens inside our eye that does this job for us and in early life it is crystal clear. As we age, this lens can become cloudy and begin to block light or create blur. We call this change in the lens a “cataract”.

Fortunately, cataracts are treatable through surgery. During cataract surgery, the clouded lens is removed and replaced with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). This procedure is highly successful in restoring clear vision for most people, allowing them to see more clearly and improve their quality of life.

    Dr. Gillespie is very busy, and I understand that I may not get every single question answered, but I took the initiative to ask staff, as well as doing my own research on scholarly websites (WebMd, Mayo Clinic databases). Very knowledgeable Ophthalmologist,

    Was not given enough follow up care on a significant eye damage situation. Staff are fantastic but Dr. Gillespie doesn't communicate well and speeds through instructions for after care to the point I had to ask for it to be written down, and I'm not stupid. Almost seems like he just likes to hear himself talk.

    Someone who is actually punctual and cares. I don't appreciate arrogant staff and a doctor that I have waited to see for months that clearly could.not care less. What a horrible referral.
