Tennessee Retina is proud to be a sponsor for the 2026 Step Out® Walk with the American Diabetes Association!

This is a photo of Asteroid Hyalosis. Asteroid Hyalosis occurs when small calcium lipid particles are suspended in the vitreous. The highly reflective calcium-lipid particles will shine or highlight on the darker retinal background. As seen in this image of the scattered highlighted yellowish particles. Most of these patients will remain asymptomatic (have no visual symptoms). This is a harmless condition that is commonly found on a routine eye exam.

Diabetes Alert Day 🚨 A reminder to take a moment and check your risk!

Led by the American Diabetes Association this day is dedicated to raising awareness about the seriousness of diabetes—and the importance of early detection.

Diabetes can affect many parts of the body, including your eyes. One common complication is diabetic retinopathy, a condition that damages the small blood vessels in the retina—often without noticeable symptoms in its early stages.
The good news? Early detection can make all the difference!

If you have diabetes or think you might be at risk, don’t wait:
✔️ Schedule a comprehensive eye exam
✔️ Know the warning signs
✔️ Take steps to protect your vision

During Save Your Vision Month, remember that protecting your sight starts with regular eye exams.👁️
Many retinal diseases progress silently. Conditions like macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal vein occlusions can damage the delicate tissues in the back of the eye long before symptoms appear.
Early detection allows specialists to intervene and preserve vision. When caught early, many retinal conditions are far more manageable.

Don’t wait for changes in your vision. Schedule an appointment with your primary eye care provider today.
