A retina specialist is a highly trained physician and ophthalmologist who specializes specifically in the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of conditions affecting the retina and the vitreous gel in the back of the eye. At Benjamin Eye Institute, we are happy to offer professional retinal services for our patients under the care of Pamela Golchet, M.D., an expert in the diagnosis and treatment of vitreo-retinal diseases.
To have optimal vision, you need a healthy retina. This thin, membranous lining is located at the back of the eye and comprised of cells connected to nerve fibers. These cells allow the light that enters the eye to convert to nerve impulses that eventually reach the brain. At the Benjamin Eye Institute in Los Angeles, we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of complex conditions that affect this critical structure.
The Benjamin Eye Institute is a comprehensive ophthalmology practice, with emphasis on refractive surgery and premium surgical care of ocular diseases.
We work closely with more than 400 local area physicians and optometrists who routinely refer patients to us.
We are confident that you will find our state-of-art facility and friendly staff easy and pleasurable to work with. We pride ourselves on providing our patients with the best and most up to date methods of treating ocular disease and are dedicated to working with you in offering the best possible pre and post-operative care. We understand that high quality timely communication with referring providers is paramount. We have human and technological resources devoted to make this happen.
As we head into our mid to late 40s we will all begin to notice that small print becomes more and more difficult to read up close. This is usually noticed when one starts to move menus, price tags and newspapers further away in order to read the fine print. This condition, called presbyopia, affects everyone and is a typical sign of aging eyes.
