The choice of doctors and patients - Since 1983

Welcome to Retina & Vitreous Consultants of Wisconsin

Milwaukee’s Leading Retina Specialists

Founded in 1983, Retina and Vitreous Consultants of Wisconsin has grown into Southeastern Wisconsin’s  largest and premier retina practice.  Because of its track record of providing exceptional retinal care, Retina and Vitreous Consultants of Wisconsin has received over 100,000 new  patient referrals from both ophthalmologists and optometrists.

While the specialty of retina has changed over the last 40 years, our commitment to excellent, ethical, and accessible patient care remains steadfast. We continue to provide an extensive breadth of surgical and medical treatment of retina and vitreous diseases while working closely with referring doctors who entrust us with your care. 

With diverse training at some of the  top retina programs across the country, our board-certified physicians have substantial experience in addressing both common and rare retinal conditions. Remaining up-to-date on recent advancements in the field, our doctors have one singular goal- to help patients maximize their full visual potential

Retina and Vitreous Consultants of Wisconsin continues to innovate and expand in 2024.  The transition to a new Class A office suite in Greenfield demonstrates our long-term dedication and investment in  the south side of Milwaukee, an integral area for our practice, in addition to maintaining our presence at 4 other office locations in Southeast Wisconsin.  

With the hiring of  Dr. Razek Coussa, we will be offering for the first time pediatric medical and surgical retinal care.  We are developing Milwaukee’s only comprehensive Inherited Retinal Disease clinic focused on offering  Wisconsin patients the latest technological advancements with regards to diagnosis, management, surgery and interventional research for rare and debilitating genetic diseases.

We earn our reputation through hard work and proven results, and it is not a coincidence that Retina and Vitreous Consultants of Wisconsin remains the busiest retina practice in Southeast Wisconsin and beyond with many patients traveling hundreds of miles across the state and  from Illinois to see us.

Patient Education

Vitreo-retinal surgery

We perform all of our surgery at Aurora St. Luke’s Medical Center, the largest hospital in Wisconsin. We regularly perform microincisional vitrectomy which is the platform on which nearly all retinal conditions are addressed surgically; the more common indications include retinal detachment, macular pucker/hole, vitreous hemorrhage, persistent floaters, retained lens after cataract surgery, diabetic retinopathy, infection, and ocular trauma. Depending on context, scleral buckling, cryotherapy, and pneumatic retinopexy are also occasionally employed in the management of retinal detachments and retinal tears.

Laser

Laser retinopexy is the bedrock of retinal tear management, while laser panretinal photocoagulation, grid of focal laser, micropulse laser, and photodynamic therapy with Visudyne are utilized most often for diabetic retinopathy, macular edema and central serous retinopathy.

Intravitreal injections

Intravitreal injections are the mainstay of treatment for wet age related macular degeneration, macular edema from a variety of causes, and several other conditions. We have access to all types of injections including Avastin, Eylea and Eylea HD, Vabysmo, Lucentis, Beovu, Ozurdex, Kenalog/Triesence, Yutiq, Syfovre, and Izervay.

Diagnostic Testing

All of our locations have on-site imaging capability including Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), wide angle fundus photography and Autofluorescence (FP/AF) and Fluorescein Angiography (FA), and B-scan ultrasonography

I have been seeing Dr. Raja for over a year now. Registration when you arrive is fast and easy. I have only been to the Kenosha offices, but the staff there is professional and caring. I trust Dr. Raja with my vision. He always lets me know how my sight health is doing at the end of every visit. I would recommend.

I am so grateful that Retina And Vitreous Consultants Of Wisconsin responded to my emergency when I was unable to get an appointment with my ophthalmologist. They got me in to see Dr. Shaw hours after I contacted them and explained I was blind in my eye. Dr. Shaw diagnosed me with a detached retina and I was scheduled for surgery. I was optimistic that I would regain my sight after my surgery and the post surgery followup the next day when Dr. Shaw did additional laser work to strengthen my eye to assist with successful recovery. 8 weeks post surgery I now see better than I did before. Besides being thorough, patient and compassionate, Dr. Shaw is a brilliant surgeon and I highly recommend him.

I went to Dr. Tosi with a major vision problem in my right eye. He diagnosed the issue with my eye and explained it to me in terms that I could understand. He gave the different options available with expectations for each treatment. I was able to make a decision based on his input. I couldn’t be any more pleased final results.

All I knew is that my world was going dark, I had lost 50% of my vision in 4 days. I called my doctor and he made me an emergency appointment with Dr. Nicholas Tosi (Retina Specialist). My family drove me 30 miles to see him. After explaining to me that I had a torn retina, Dr. Tosi and has team said, they would meet me at the hospital after he finished the rest of his appointments. They performed surgery on my eyes that night. I have my vision today because Dr. Tosi is a gifted surgeon. I have often thought how do you repay a person that saved you from going blind. If life has taught me anything, showing someone how much you appreciate them is a good starting point. So, with that said, “Dr. Tosi I thank you with all my heart— you saved me from blindness. God Bless you and your surgery team!!!
