Dr. Jessica Gomez treats retinal disease in Chula Vista as a board-certified, fellowship-trained vitreoretinal specialist at American Eye Associates on Third Avenue. The retina practice manages diabetic patients whose systemic conditions require coordinated glucose monitoring through primary-care networks at San Ysidro Health Chula Vista, closing the loop between HbA1c control and progression of diabetic macular edema. A UC San Diego graduate with Provost Honors in Biochemistry and Cell Biology, the physician earned her MD from UCLA's David Geffen School of Medicine in 2011, completed ophthalmology residency at the University of Minnesota, and finished a two-year vitreoretinal fellowship at Baylor College of Medicine. Intravitreal anti-VEGF injection cycles for retinal vein-occlusion and wet AMD patients run on four-to-eight-week intervals, with post-injection medication regimens dispensed at South Bay Pharmacy to maintain the treatment cadence that progressive retinal disease demands. The physician's surgical scope includes 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane peeling for macular holes, scleral-buckle repair for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, and endolaser photocoagulation for proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
