THE RETINA INSTITUTE offers Patients expert care and a comprehensive array of technologies that rivals many academic centers. In fact, we are proud to have introduced OCT Angiography to the entire state of Louisiana. The field of Retina is leading medicine in the development of genetic and stem cell therapies, which are likely to be available for macular degeneration and inherited retinal disorders within 5 years.

Innovative Technology for Diagnosis and Treatment of Retinal Disease
Gulf South residents of Louisiana and Mississippi suffer high numbers of diabetic retinopathy, macular edema, hypertensive retinopathy, macular degeneration, retinal vein occlusions, macular holes, epiretinal membranes (macular pucker or cellophane maculopathy), and retinal detachments. With a strong ethic of Patient-centered care, THE RETINA INSTITUTE has become the Premier New Orleans Medical and Micro-Surgical Retinal Eye Care Center.

Artificial Photoreceptors Could Save the Sight of Millions
Future breakthroughs likely will allow our native organic retinal cells to be rescued from degenerative disorders such as macular degeneration. Research is showing this to be possible. The field of Retina is leading medicine in the development of genetic and stem cell therapies, which may be available for macular degeneration and inherited retinal disorders within 5 years.

Your Retina Can Predict Cardiovascular Risk
Visible on exam and fine imaging technologies are signs that correlate with and may even predict your cardiovascular risk. Scientists are applying artificial intelligence to retinal imaging to discover and reduce these risks.
