About The Retina

The retina is a thin layer which is very delicate and located in the back of the eye. It is a crucial component of the visual process that captures and processes light and turns it into electrical signals that the brain processes as images.

What To Expect

First time visits can last some time where you will be asked to provide your medical history as well as any medications you are currently taking.

After this, Dr. Ahmed will dilate your eyes so they can be examined for any irregularities. Tests and imaging may be performed to track progress on any existing conditions you may have.
