Retina

When it comes to keeping your eyes healthy, it helps to understand how your eyes work. The retina is a crucial component of how you’re able to see the world around you. At Dakota Eye Institute, we provide retina education and specialized eye care to the people in our community. Retinal care (diagnosis, education, treatment and management) is an ongoing process and we truly enjoy helping our patients understand what’s happening inside their eyes and helping preserve their vision as much as possible.
