Safeguarding Your Sight from Within: Specialized Retina Services at Ziki Eye Care

Expert Care for the "Film" of Your Eye

Think of your eye as a camera; the retina is the film at the back that captures the image and sends it to your brain. When the retina is damaged, the picture becomes distorted, blurred, or lost entirely. Conditions affecting the retina—such as Diabetic Retinopathy, Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), and Retinal Detachment—are serious, but with timely intervention, vision can often be preserved.

At Ziki Eye Care, we provide a lifeline for patients with retinal conditions. We specialize in diagnosing and managing diseases at the back of the eye to prevent permanent vision loss.

Advanced Imaging & Therapeutics

Because the retina is located deep within the eye, treating it requires high-precision technology. We utilize Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), a non-invasive scanning method that provides cross-sectional images of the retina, allowing us to see beneath the surface and detect fluid or swelling that a standard exam might miss.

Our treatment capabilities include Anti-VEGF Intravitreal Injections to stop abnormal blood vessel growth and leakage, as well as Argon Laser Photocoagulation to seal retinal tears or treat diabetic eye disease. These treatments are performed with microscopic precision to target only the damaged areas while sparing healthy tissue.

Why Choose Ziki Eye Care for Retina Management?

Retinal conditions often require long-term management and trust between patient and doctor.

• Retina Specialists: Our team includes ophthalmologists with specific training in posterior segment (back of the eye) diseases, ensuring you receive the highest standard of care.

• Diabetic Eye Care Leaders: We work closely with diabetic patients to monitor how blood sugar levels affect their vision. We focus on catching "background" retinopathy before it advances to a sight-threatening stage.

• Emergency Responsiveness: Retinal issues like detachments or sudden bleeds are emergencies. We prioritize these cases to ensure rapid assessment and treatment when every hour counts.

What to Expect During Your Retina Evaluation

A retina exam is more detailed than a standard check-up.

• Dilation is Key: To see the back of the eye clearly, we will almost always use drops to dilate your pupils. This may make your vision blurry for a few hours and sensitive to light, so we recommend bringing sunglasses and having a driver if possible.

• Painless Treatments: The idea of an eye injection sounds frightening, but we make it virtually painless. We use strong numbing drops and specialized techniques so that most patients feel only a slight pressure, not pain.

• Detailed Explanation: Retinal images can be complex. We take the time to show you your scans on a screen, explaining exactly what is happening inside your eye so you understand your treatment plan.

Take the First Step Toward Preservation

If you are experiencing flashes of light, new floaters, or a shadow curtain across your vision, these are warning signs that require immediate attention. For those with diabetes, annual retina checks are mandatory—even if your vision feels fine.
