The Retina’s Function

The retina is the layer of cells that covers the back of the eye’s inner surface. This sensitive area converts the light that comes into our eye into electrical impulses, which are transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve.

The retina houses the rods and cones responsible for color vision, as well as the macula, which provides detailed vision.

Monitoring & Protecting the Retina

At Riverside Eye Specialists, we use a blend of cutting-edge and tried-and-true technology to help monitor your retinal health, including:

For many retinal imaging tests, you’ll need to have your pupils dilated with drops. This allows us a clearer view of your retina. Please bring sunglasses to your appointment to protect your extra sensitive eyes when you leave.

Many retinal conditions can be managed or treated with medication or laser eye surgery. Visit our practice to protect your vision.
