Dedicated to your retina health and visual wellness, Mississippi Retina Associates is the largest retina-focused ophthalmology practice in Mississippi, supporting our mission with on onsite Retina Research facility and Surgical Center.
Spending more time outdoors and reducing screen exposure can have a meaningful impact on eye health. Research continues to show that extended screen use may contribute to eye strain, dryness, headaches, and blurred vision, while increased outdoor time has been associated with healthier visual development in children. You can support your eye health by taking regular breaks from screens, spending more time outside when possible, reducing screen use before bedtime, and maintaining routine comprehensive eye exams. Healthy vision is supported by consistent daily habits, and small changes can make a lasting difference. #EyeHealth #HealthyVision #ScreenTimeBalance #Ophthalmology

What a day! The Mississippi Retina Vision Walk brought our community together in the best way, and because of you, we raised more than $12,000 for the Foundation Fighting Blindness. From the finish line moments to the kids’ fun run and every smiling face in between, this event was about more than a race. It was about hope, research, and supporting families affected by retinal disease. Thank you to everyone who walked, ran, volunteered, sponsored, and cheered! Every step made a difference.

A scratched eye can be painful and frustrating, but quick care can make a difference. If you suspect an eye scratch, don’t rub the eye. Gently flush it with clean water or saline and protect it until you can see an eye doctor. Watch for increasing pain, light sensitivity, or changes in vision, and seek care right away if these occur. Your eye health matters.
