“I believe in the importance of high quality medical care with an emphasis on careful diagnosis and meticulous surgery.
I look at the retina as an extension of the brain and understand its implications in basic neuroscience. Surgery should never be good enough, it should always strive for the best possible outcomes.”

Our Story
Deep Blue Retina retinal surgery clinic brings leading retinal medicine to the Midsouth. Committed to the highest level of eye care for adult and pediatric patients, Deep Blue Retina provides medical and surgical solutions for most complex retinal cases. Our services include interventions for everything from retinal detachment repair to complex cataract. We provide longterm care for patients with a wide variety of chronic conditions including macular degeneration, diabetes-related vision loss, and glaucoma.
Deep Blue Retina was created in 2019 by Dr. Jorge Calzada. Following years of experience in both private ophthalmology practice and academic practice, the time was right to start a fresh concept that integrates clinical care with forward thinking medical advancements. In a healthcare landscape dominated by medical practices owned by either large corporate financial groups or large hospital systems, DBR brought its attention back to the two human components of the medical experience: the patient and the doctor. Modern medicine can, and should, focus on the doctor-patient relationship while simultaneously incorporating modern diagnostic technology and cutting-edge medical research. That is the goal of Deep Blue Retina.
