Advanced, Focused Care for the Retina
Because Atlantic Retina Center treats only the retina, vitreous, and macula, every patient benefits from a level of specialized attention few practices can offer. In Dover we manage age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal tears and detachments, macular pucker and holes, and vascular occlusions, with in-office imaging, laser, intravitreal injections, and vitreoretinal surgery all under one roof.

Common Questions About Our Dover Retina Office
Our Dover office is at 834 South Governors Avenue in Dover, serving Kent County and central Delaware. Dover is a satellite location, so our vitreoretinal surgeons see patients here on a set rotation rather than every weekday. Call our office and our staff will schedule you on the next Dover clinic day.
Yes. The board-certified, fellowship-trained surgeons you would see in Salisbury are the same ones who care for patients in Dover. Atlantic Retina Center treats nothing but the retina, vitreous, and macula, and that focus doesn't change from office to office. Dover patients get the same subspecialty care, the same imaging equipment, and the same treatment protocols.
Dover manages the full range of retinal and macular disease, with diabetic eye disease making up a large share of what we treat in central Delaware, from early diabetic retinopathy found on a screening exam through diabetic macular edema requiring ongoing injection therapy. We also treat age-related macular degeneration, retinal vein and artery occlusion, macular pucker, macular hole, and retinal tears and detachments. Imaging, laser, and intravitreal injections are all performed on-site in Dover. New flashes, a sudden increase in floaters, or a curtain over part of your vision needs same-day evaluation, so call us instead of waiting for the next scheduled clinic day.
Many Dover patients are referred by optometrists, ophthalmologists, and endocrinologists across Kent County, particularly for diabetic eye screening, and we report findings back to the referring provider so your care stays coordinated. You can also request an appointment directly, though some plans require a referral for specialist visits. Delaware providers can refer through our physician referral page.
Atlantic Retina Center accepts Medicare and most major commercial insurance plans at all of our Maryland and Delaware locations. Call our office with your plan information before your first visit and our staff will confirm your benefits in advance.
Our Dover office serves Kent County and central Delaware, including Smyrna, Camden, Wyoming, Magnolia, Woodside, Felton, and Dover Air Force Base. Patients further south are usually closer to our Milford office. All five locations are listed here.
