✨ Now Offering the Valeda Light Delivery System ✨

We’re excited to announce that Retina Associates of Michigan now offers the first and only FDA-authorized treatment for Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) proven to improve vision.

The Valeda Light Delivery System is a breakthrough, non-invasive therapy that uses multiwavelength photobiomodulation (PBM) to:
👁️ Improve visual acuity
⚡ Target mitochondrial dysfunction in the retina
🌟 Enhance patient outcomes for those with dry AMD

This advanced technology allows us to bring new hope to patients with dry AMD - offering treatment options where few have existed before.

📞 Call us today to learn if Valeda therapy is right for you.

Electroretinography (ERG) measures how well the cells in your retina respond to light. It’s a powerful tool for diagnosing inherited retinal diseases, unexplained vision loss, and many complex conditions.

Understanding function helps us preserve vision.

Thank you for the glowing review for Dr. Singh, Roxane! ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

Idiopathic Juxtafoveal Telangiectasis (pronounced tell an gee ACT te sis) (JFT), also known as perifoveal telangiectasis or mac-tel for macular telangiectasia, is a condition in which abnormalities develop in blood vessels at the center of the retina. This central part of the retina, called the fovea, is responsible for the sharp vision needed for reading and recognizing faces.

SYMPTOMS
Patients with JFT may experience:
• Blurred vision
• Metamorphopsia (pronounced met a morf OP see ah) - a visual disturbance where straight lines appear wavy; parts of the central vision may also appear blank.
• Difficulty reading
• Visual field defects in one or both eyes

The condition may be diagnosed before it causes any symptoms at all.
