Medical Retina

In-office management and treatment of retinal illnesses are the focus of the ophthalmology subspecialty known as medical retina. Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy, hypertensive retinopathy, vitreous floaters, retinal vascular disorders, retinal tears, and a few different types of retinal detachments are among the conditions that can affect the retina. The retina is the tissue lining the inner surface of the back of the eye. For one to have central vision (such as seeing people's faces and sports scores on TV), the macula, located in the middle of the retina, is crucial. Although retinal illness can be severe and vision-threatening, recent advancements in the field have increased our ability to properly treat these issues
