General Information:

Retinal diseases are some of the most serious eye conditions.  The retina is actually a part of the central nervous system.  Like the brain, the retina has a limited restorative capacity.

Early, aggressive treatment of retinal diseases will usually result in the best outcomes.  Sadly, retinal diseases sometimes advance despite appropriate treatment.  Even with the latest procedures, treatments and methods, some patients will have wonderful outcomes and some will have less than wonderful outcomes.

Many dramatic advances have been made over the last three decades in the treatment of retinal diseases.  We stay at the cutting edge of both the art and science of treating retinal disease.  We provide the best possibilities for good results.
