The retina is a thin layer of light-sensitive tissue located at the back of the eye. It captures light and sends visual signals to the brain through the optic nerve, allowing us to see clearly. When the retina becomes damaged or diseased, vision can be significantly affected. Retinal diseases encompass a range of conditions, including macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal tears and detachments, and retinal vein occlusions. Each of these conditions can interfere with how the retina processes light, leading to blurred or distorted vision—and, in some cases, permanent vision loss if left untreated.

At Bennett Ophthalmology Group, we specialize in the diagnosis and management of retinal disorders using advanced imaging and treatment techniques. Our goal is to detect problems early, preserve sight, and improve quality of life for our patients. Whether you’re managing a chronic condition like diabetes or experiencing sudden vision changes, prompt evaluation by a retinal specialist is essential. Early detection and treatment can often prevent or limit vision loss and help maintain healthy eyesight for years to come.
