An ophthalmologist is a medical specialist who studies, diagnoses, prevents, and treats eye and vision diseases.
Purpose of the Website
This section is dedicated to medical retinal pathologies, such as diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), vascular occlusions, and other diseases that progressively affect vision and require specialized management and ongoing follow-up.
Although my specialty is focused on the cornea, ocular surface, and refractive surgery, I also hold a Master's degree in Retina Surgery, which allows me to comprehensively address both anterior and posterior segment problems. This training qualifies me to offer accurate diagnoses and up-to-date treatments in the field of medical retinal surgery. I do not perform retinal surgeries.

Why is this section separate from Cornea, Refractive Surgery, and Cataract?
Although all are subspecialties within ophthalmology, anterior segment pathologies (cornea, cataract, ocular surface, and refractive surgery) are radically different from posterior segment diseases (retina) in:
Pathophysiology
Progression
Complementary diagnoses
Types of treatment
Specific emergencies
Visual prognosis
For this reason, I have decided to separate this page and organize it as an independent site with exclusive medical retina content. This allows for a clearer, more in-depth, and up-to-date explanation of each pathology, as well as improving the patient experience when searching for accurate information about their condition.
