Advanced Care for the Back of the Eye
Retinal Conditions
Evaluation and management of diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and retinal tears.
About Retinal Conditions
Retinal disease is the leading cause of new legal blindness in working-age Americans. Early detection through comprehensive retinal imaging — before any vision change occurs — is the single most important factor in preserving sight.
The retina is the light-sensing tissue lining the back of the eye — any damage to it can have permanent consequences for vision. At Giliberti Eye & Laser Center, we use wide-field fundus photography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and fluorescein angiography to evaluate the retina with exceptional detail. We manage diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), retinal tears, and other macular diseases, coordinating with specialist retinal surgeons when surgical intervention is required.

Your Journey to Better Vision
Dilated Fundus Examination
After dilation drops, we examine the full retina with a binocular indirect ophthalmoscope and fundus lenses, assessing the optic nerve, macula, vessels, and peripheral retina.
Retinal Imaging
Wide-field photography and OCT cross-sectional imaging provide a detailed, documented baseline. These images allow precise comparison at future visits to track changes.
In-Office Laser Treatment
Retinal tears are treated with in-office laser photocoagulation (retinopexy) to prevent progression to retinal detachment. Diabetic macular edema may be managed with focal laser therapy.
Specialist Coordination
When vitreoretinal surgery, intravitreal injections (anti-VEGF for AMD), or complex retinal detachment repair is indicated, we coordinate prompt referral to trusted subspecialist surgeons.
