Brief Intro

The vitreo-retinal specialist makes their primary focus on the back of the eye where the images are focused. This extension of the central nervous system is crucial in providing for clear vision. Dr. Nussbaum is a 1976 graduate of the University of Miami School of Medicine who completed his ophthalmology residency at MCG in 1980. He simultaneously completed fellowships in vitreous and retina surgery at Retina Associates in Cambridge, Massachusetts; clinical ophthalmology at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary of Harvard Medical School; and research at the Eye Research Institute of the Retina Foundation of Boston. He joined the faculty of the Henry Ford Health System in 1982 where he built and directed the Retina Service. Ten years later he was named chairman of Henry Ford Eye Care Services. During his tenure as chairman, Henry Ford Eye Care Services became one of the largest ophthalmology departments in the country with 36 physicians and scientists, 12 locations throughout southeastern Michigan and revenues in excess of $40 million. He also helped oversee one of the country's largest ophthalmology residency training programs as well as research activities of the health system. Dr. Nussbaum is an associate examiner for the American Board of Ophthalmology, and serves as a reviewer for the Archives of Ophthalmology.
