For more than 45 years, Florida Retina Institute has been at the forefront of groundbreaking retina care and research.

For more than four decades, Florida Retina Institute has led the way in specialized retina care—delivering compassionate treatment and advancing research that shapes the future of retinal medicine. With 20 locations across Florida and Georgia and a nationally recognized team of vitreo-retinal specialists, Florida Retina Institute remains committed to preserving sight and enhancing lives.
Leading the Way in Clinical Trials and Research
The heart of the practice’s mission is innovation. Florida Retina Institute operates three advanced clinical trials and research departments in Jacksonville, Orlando and Wildwood, which provide patients with access to the latest therapies, including a next-generation gene therapy for wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). This groundbreaking approach is designed to support long-term vision care by helping the eye produce its own medicine—potentially reducing the need for ongoing treatments and offering a more convenient, lasting solution. Through cutting-edge technology and pioneering clinical research, Florida Retina Institute continues to deliver forward-thinking care to patients in Orlando, Wildwood, Jacksonville and surrounding communities.
