Scleral Buckle Procedure at Beacon Retina
At Beacon Retina in Bethesda, we specialize in the scleral buckle procedure, a highly effective surgical treatment for repairing retinal detachments. This proven technique involves placing a soft, supportive band (buckle) around the eye to gently reposition and stabilize the retina, allowing it to reattach properly.
Our approach combines advanced surgical expertise with personalized care, ensuring each patient receives the most appropriate treatment based on their specific condition. Whether the detachment is straightforward or complex, our goal is to restore vision and protect long-term eye health.
Types of Scleral Buckle Procedures
This technique is particularly effective for certain types of retinal detachments and is often recommended based on patient age, eye structure, and underlying risk factors.

Dr. Wong is very nice, efficient and thorough. She explained everything to me as she was doing the exam. Went over findings. Made recommendations and a plan of action. It is great that there is free parking. Her office is very nice and spacious. For my first time ever visiting an ophthalmologist, this was a very good experience. I highly recommend her.
