Welcome to the Center for Retina Care!
The Center for Retina Care, a section of the Center
for Vision Care, specializes in the medical and surgical treatment
of the retina, vitreous, and uvea. We serve Syracuse, Central New
York, and people from around the United States and around the world.
The Center prides itself on personal care. As our
mission
statement emphasizes, we firmly believe in treating everyone
with respect, taking time to talk, and involving people in their
care to achieve the best possible outcome.
The Center draws on the considerable resources of
SUNY Upstate Medical University. Like other parts of the University,
we hope to not only provide the best quality care but to also help
set the standard for that care in the future.
We have a very close relationship with the Center
for Vision Research and are currently doing studies into the nature
of diabetic eye disease. We strive to stay at the leading edge of
retina research and treatment.
The Center for Retina Care provides comprehensive
medical, laser, and surgical care of the retina. Dr.
Anthony Andrews, a Board Certified Ophthalmologist and Vitreoretinal
Surgeon, treats retina and vitreous disorders as well as treating
inflammation in the eye (uveitis or iritis).
While the Center handles cases from premature babies
to the elderly, we have a special interest in diabetes eye care
and macular degeneration.

The Center for Retina Care is located within the Center
