Retina Specialists Serving LaPorte, Indiana

Board-certified, fellowship-trained vitreoretinal surgeons about 45 minutes from LaPorte

LaPorte, New Carlisle, Rolling Prairie and Walkerton residents reach our Mishawaka office in under an hour by US 20 or the Indiana Toll Road, and many prefer the drive east to a longer trip into northwest Indiana or Chicago.

We work with LaPorte County optometrists, ophthalmologists and primary care physicians to co-manage diabetic eye disease, macular degeneration and retinal vascular disease, and we return a report after each visit.

Given the distance, we consolidate imaging, examination and treatment into a single visit whenever possible and keep urgent appointment slots for patients with new flashes, floaters or vision loss.
