Services
Laser Treatment
Laser surgery treats retinal diseases like diabetic retinopathy and macular edema. This precise, minimally invasive option seals leaks and prevents vision loss. Patients benefit from quicker recovery compared to traditional surgery.
Injection Options
Targeted injections address conditions like wet macular degeneration. Our specialists use FDA-approved medications to reduce swelling and inhibit abnormal blood vessel growth, preserving central vision effectively.
Vitrectomy
Vitrectomy removes vitreous gel to repair retinal detachments or severe eye injuries. This complex procedure restores vision by allowing access to the retina for repairs and debris removal.
Diabetic Retinopathy
We specialize in managing diabetes-related retinal damage through early detection and tailored treatments. Our approach prevents progression using lasers, injections, and close monitoring to maintain vision.
Macular Degeneration
Our team provides comprehensive care for age-related macular degeneration, including anti-VEGF injections and lifestyle guidance. Treatments focus on slowing disease progression and maintaining independence in daily activities.

Very professional and friendly staff. Dr. Lynds is great. My exam showed no retina damage or disease - thankfully. They referred me to a general Ophthamologist who was top notch, got me scheduled quickly and he was able to remove my cataract and replace it with a super lens. I see wonderfully now.

I would highly recommend this group for advanced eye Care. All of the staff and doctors are very professional. They take time to answer questions and are very caring. Excellent facility. I read some reviews so wanted to say I've been seen on time each visit. There was no wait time. Dr. Lynds and Dr. Lee are very professional and took time to explain my eye condition. All of the techs who dilated my eyes, did the glaucoma check, and the vision tests were well trained and explained everything. I am VERY satisfied with the services I received and HIGHLY recommend North Texas Retina Consultants in Willow Park, Texas. Very friendly, accomodating staff.

As we age our eyes play such an important role in everything we do, including walking, lifting, balancing, driving, and keeping up with whatever group we are enjoying. To have a Retina Specialist like Dr. Ross Lynds fills every purpose I would ever want, and I will continue with him forever!

Dr. Patel and all his wonderful colleagues have saved my vision in spite of an ongoing chronic condition, and have made it possible even with my financial limitations. They are doing God's healing work in the world not only thru the administration of medical treatment, but also in the caring and compassionate way they treat their patients- every single time. They have both my absolute and sincere recommendation, but also my undying gratitude.

I had the most outstanding visit with North Texas Retina. I was greeted in the most friendly manner and was very pleased at the end of my visit. The Techs that saw me before seeing Dr Lynds were very professional and nice. Dr Lynds took the time to fully explain my diagnoses and the next steps that I am needing to take. I would definitely recommend North Texas Retina to everyone I know.

My experience at North Texas Retina was great. I have had a blind spot in my right eye for over 15 years now and saw Dr Crawford for an evaluation. He was very thorough in explaining the condition and helped me to understand what was going on completely! Not to mention the wonderful staff! Made me feel very welcomed! I look forward to my follow up appointments!
