Our featured image in March was captured by Christina Moreno on our OPTOS Fundus camera! 🏆📷

This is a photo of a Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment. Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachments are the most common types of detachment. These detachments occur when there is a tear or break that allows fluid to pass through and collect underneath the retina, detaching it from its underlying blood supply. Retinal Detachments are a site threatening condition and need to be examined and treated by a retina specialist.

💙Congratulations to 2nd place photo, Tiffany Del Rio and 3rd place, Nate Havens!

🎉Celebrating Anniversaries at Tennessee Retina!🎉
This April, we’re recognizing 3 incredible team members for their years of dedication and service:

💙 Toni King, ABA – 5 Years
Medical Records Specialist
"Over the past five years at TNR, I have taken on various roles, starting as a front office receptionist, then progressing to a lead position, becoming a supervisor, and now working in medical records. Each of these experiences has strengthened my skills, boosted my confidence, and fueled my passion for patient care. I love working here because I am consistently challenged, supported, and presented with opportunities for growth, all while being part of a team that makes a meaningful difference every day."

💙 Adrian Brown, OSC, OCSR – 10 Years
Clinical supervisor
"I started here as a scribe. At that time, there were 9 doctors and around 4 managers. Something that has always kept me here through the highs and lows has been the people.
I really dug myself into the culture here and always wanted TNR to be the best it could be. That has always been my mission for myself and for this company. I give it my all, and in return, it has given me a place to hone my skills—humbling me some days, exciting me other days, and always teaching me. I’ve been lucky enough to work with some of the most intelligent, dedicated, challenging, caring, and surprisingly funny doctors and coworkers. 10 years sounds like such a long time, but it has really flown by. They say you don’t work a day in your life if you love what you do, I can’t say it doesn’t feel like work, but I can say that working with the people I do makes it feel a lot less like it."

💙 Kim Jeter – 10 Years
Ophthalmic Technician
"I have thoroughly enjoyed my 10 years at TNR as ophthalmology tech. Over these years I have enjoyed working with so many wonderful people that I now consider family. One of the things I love best about TNR is the relationships we get to build with our patients. Every day I get to welcome patients that have also become like family over the years."

👏 Please join us in congratulating these amazing team members and thanking them for their commitment to our mission and patients!

Dr. Thomas attended the Vit-Buckle Society’s 14th Annual Meeting, VBS in Wonderland, in Las Vegas.

He presented as part of a debate on optimal timing of retinal detachment surgery. He was joined by Dr. Uner, our incoming vitreoretinal fellow, and Ifrah Khurram, a medical student conducting research with our team.

The Vit-Buckle Society Annual Meeting brings together leaders in the field to share ideas and advance the management of retinal diseases. We’re proud to be part of a community focused on education, collaboration, and innovation.

April is Women’s Eye Health and Safety Month👩🏻👁️
Women are at higher risk for certain eye conditions, including age-related macular degeneration, dry eye disease, and vision changes related to autoimmune conditions. Hormonal changes and longer life expectancy can also impact eye health over time.

That’s why routine, comprehensive eye exams are so important! Early detection and consistent treatment can significantly reduce the risk of vision loss.

At Tennessee Retina, we encourage women to prioritize their eye health and take a proactive approach to protecting their vision.
