Retinal Disease Treatment
NJRetina specializes in diagnosing and treating retinal diseases such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal detachment. Our board-certified specialists use advanced imaging and treatments like intravitreal injections and laser therapy to preserve vision. Patients benefit from personalized care plans tailored to their specific conditions and medical histories.
Vitrectomy Surgery
Vitrectomy removes vitreous gel to treat retinal detachment, macular holes, and vitreous hemorrhage. Performed in an outpatient setting, this procedure uses micro-incisions and advanced tools to restore retinal health. Patients often experience improved vision and reduced distortion after recovery, with post-op care including gas or air bubbles to stabilize the retina.
Laser Photocoagulation
Laser photocoagulation seals leaking blood vessels and repairs retinal tears. This in-office procedure targets abnormal tissue without damaging healthy areas, effectively managing diabetic macular edema and retinal vein occlusion. Patients typically resume normal activities immediately, with follow-up visits to monitor healing and visual outcomes.
Intravitreal Injections
Intravitreal injections deliver medications like anti-VEGF drugs to treat wet AMD, diabetic retinopathy, and macular edema. Administered in-office with minimal discomfort, these injections reduce swelling and inhibit abnormal blood vessel growth. Regular treatments are often required, with close monitoring to adjust dosing and optimize long-term vision preservation.
Retinal Detachment Repair
Retinal detachment repair includes scleral buckling, pneumatic retinopexy, and vitrectomy to reattach the retina. These procedures prevent permanent vision loss by sealing tears and stabilizing the retinal structure. Success rates are high when treated promptly, emphasizing the importance of immediate evaluation for symptoms like sudden floaters or vision loss.

The care was great, but the fact that the Masks mandates have been lifted, they still required a mask, may take my business elsewhere.
