Diabetic Eye Care
in Missouri

For more than 60 years, our community has trusted us to provide high-quality eye care for even the most complex conditions — and that often means managing diabetic eye disease. Our caring team goes the extra mile during diabetic eye exams to help keep your eyes healthy and safe from diseases and complications related to diabetes, like diabetic retinopathy.

What Is Diabetic Eye Care?

There are several types of diabetes, and all of them put you at equal risk of developing diabetic eye diseases that can lead to blindness. And often, you won’t notice symptoms until damage is done. That’s why we use advanced technology to monitor your diabetes, blood sugar, and any effects diabetes has had on your eyes — when we see signs of concern early, we can act long before they affect your vision. We’re here to be your partners in diabetic eye care: we’ll customize your management plan and update it as your eye health changes to ensure your vision is as clear and comfortable as possible.

Testimonials

“Dr. DeRose has provided exceptional expertise at a much needed time. He was able to diagnose my condition when my doctor, ER docs, etc. couldn’t. Then he didn’t just stop there. He went out of his way to make sure I was cared for. It’s humbled me how he’s cared for me like a family member of his own. I will forever be indebted to him for helping me at a difficult time. I will always go to him for all my eye care needs and send him many recommendations.”
