EVALUATION & TREATMENT

Whether you’re exploring alternative treatment options, seeking cost-effective retinal care solutions, or eager to contribute to the future of healthcare for generations to come, Mississippi Retina Associates welcomes you to explore our innovative studies and patient-centered approach.

Once your treatment journey begins, our dedicated staff ensures your comfort, relaxation, and thorough preparation for your specific procedure. Treatments may encompass injections, laser procedures, or surgeries conducted in our office or operating room.

Laser treatments and injections are typically administered in-office. While scheduling may necessitate treatment on a separate day following your consultation, urgent cases often allow for same-day procedures, albeit potentially extending your visit duration.

Depending on urgency and complexity, surgeries may occur on the same day as your consultation, the following day, or at a scheduled future date, ensuring optimal timing for your care needs.
