Expert Care for Your Retina by Dr. Avijit Vishnoi
The retina is a delicate, light-sensitive layer of tissue at the back of your eye. It works much like the film in a camera, receiving light and converting it into signals the brain interprets as vision. Problems with the retina can severely impact your sight.
At Anushree Eye Hospital, led by renowned Vitreo Retina Specialist Dr. Avijit Vishnoi, we offer comprehensive and advanced diagnosis and treatment for a full spectrum of medical retina conditions.

Understanding Medical Retina
Medical Retina is a specialized field of ophthalmology focused on the non-surgical management of diseases affecting the retina and macula (the central part of the retina responsible for sharp, detailed vision). Many common retinal conditions are systemic, often linked to other health issues like diabetes and hypertension.
Common Medical Retina Conditions We Treat
Dr. Vishnoi specializes in the diagnosis and management of the following key retinal diseases:
1. Diabetic Retinopathy
- What it is: Damage to the retinal blood vessels caused by high blood sugar levels. It is the most common cause of vision loss among people with diabetes.
- Key Services: Early detection screenings, retinal angiography, and advanced treatment to halt disease progression.
2. Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
- What it is: A progressive condition that damages the macula, leading to blurred central vision. It is categorized as “dry” (more common, slow progression) or “wet” (less common, rapid, severe vision loss).
- Key Services: Specialized diagnostic imaging (OCT, FFA), and anti-VEGF injections for wet AMD.
3. Retinal Vein and Artery Occlusions (RVO/RAO)
- What it is: Blockages in the blood vessels that supply the retina, often causing sudden and severe vision loss.
- Key Services: Diagnosis and management of complications like macular edema and neovascularization.
4. Macular Edema
- What it is: Swelling or thickening of the macula, often a complication of diabetes, retinal vascular diseases, or post-operative inflammation.
- Key Services: Identification of the underlying cause and targeted treatment.
5. Central Serous Chorioretinopathy (CSCR)
- What it is: A condition where fluid builds up under the macula, causing distorted or blurred central vision.
Advanced Diagnostic and Treatment Options
We utilize state-of-the-art technology to ensure precise diagnosis and effective, minimally invasive treatment:
Advanced Diagnostics
- Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT): Provides high-resolution, cross-sectional images of the retina to visualize swelling and structural damage.
- Fundus Fluorescein Angiography (FFA): Uses a dye to photograph the blood vessels in the retina, revealing leaks or blockages.
- B-Scan Ultrasonography: Used when the retina cannot be clearly seen due to dense cataract or vitreous hemorrhage.
Medical Treatment Procedures
- Intravitreal Injections: Direct administration of medication (such as Anti-VEGF agents or Steroids) into the vitreous gel to treat conditions like Wet AMD, Diabetic Macular Edema, and RVO. These are often the first line of treatment for many retinal conditions.
- Retinal Laser Photocoagulation: A focused laser is used to treat abnormal blood vessels or seal small tears. This is a crucial treatment for conditions like Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy and certain vascular occlusions.
