Diabetic retinopathy affects one in three Americans with diabetes—and early detection is the difference between preserving your vision and losing it. At Diabetic Eye Treatment Center, we specialize in advanced screening, laser therapy, and surgical intervention tailored specifically for diabetic eye disease.

Our Services
From routine monitoring to advanced surgical intervention, we provide the full spectrum of ophthalmic care for patients with diabetes.
Dilated eye exams with specialized imaging to detect early signs of diabetic retinopathy before symptoms appear. Recommended annually for all diabetic patients.
Precision laser treatment to seal leaking blood vessels and reduce abnormal vessel growth. Scatter and focal laser therapy can halt disease progression and preserve vision.
Intravitreal injections to reduce macular edema and slow the growth of abnormal blood vessels. A minimally invasive treatment that preserves central vision in many patients.
Advanced surgical intervention for advanced diabetic retinopathy. We remove blood-filled vitreous and repair retinal detachments to restore and preserve vision.
State-of-the-art optical coherence tomography provides cross-sectional images of the retina, enabling precise diagnosis and monitoring of diabetic macular edema.
Diabetic patients have a higher risk of cataracts. We provide comprehensive cataract evaluation and surgical referral coordination when vision loss is no longer manageable with glasses.
