Looking for a good Retina Specialist at Wills Eye

[browneyes68]

I recently found out that my daughter's retina specialist past away unexpectedly.  She has been seen by this specialist since she was 3, now I’m tasked with locating a new specialist within the practice he was at or finding a totally new specialist.  Does anyone know of the best retina specialist at Wills Eye? (preferably in South Jersey Area)....My daughter has a detached retina and has been detached for about 1 yrs she has had 4 surgeries and nothing has worked to keep the retina attached so we are leaving detached and will go from there.  Note:  There has never been sight out of the right eye at all even with the retina attached.  She says she does see some light, but no vision.

Have you looked in to any other hospitals? I visited the Cleveland cinic in Ohio a few years ago, and really liked the retina specialist I seen there. I seen him over some floaters I had in my eyes to make sure my retina wasn't detaching. I highly recommend the Cleveland clinic... they are a top hospital in the USA too.... I hope you find a good doctor for your daughter soon. Good luck!
