About Me
As a retinal specialist and surgeon, I have experience treating diabetic eye diseases, retinal vascular disorders, macular diseases, retinal detachments, complex diabetic retinal detachments and traumatic retinal detachments. My passion for eye care comes from the tremendous role vision has in our lives. I continue to study the latest and most innovative techniques for treating eye diseases in order to provide the highest quality care to my patients.
I believe the best way to care for patients is to understand their unique needs and to tailor the care to according to those needs. I approach each patient as if he or she was a member of my own family and I strive to give the kind of high quality individualized medicine I would want for my family.
Ohio State is a large institution with immense resources and cutting edge technologies. I wanted to be in an environment that fosters continuing education and learning, and the Department of Ophthalmology is just the right setting. With a large residency program and fellowship programs in multiple subspecialties, I have the opportunity to help train future generations of ophthalmologists.

Doctor & resident(s) were very through & nice. Had to do unexpected laser treatment on my eye which lasted two hours. I'm sure through off the schedule. I am confident in her/his work. On the downside, in retrospect, they did not provide good "after care" information. I only learned what I should NOT have been doing 3 days later during my follow up appt w/different ophthalmologist. I was upset b/c I did things I should not have done. But not told not to!
So very good and care of me.
Dr. Flemingv is awesome. I was at ease with her.
She was wonderful - I came to your office for a second opinion (for macular degeneration) and she was so very helpful and INFORMATIVE. I asked to be seen by her again to stay on top of healthy eyes. Thank you everyone. Excellent dr. and staff.

I can't say enough about my doctor. She has also made, what I feel, not a pleasant experience, very tolerable. She has figured out how to make my eye injections, have less unpleasant after effects.
I have never had a bad experience with aft. Yanoga. she makes getting stabbed in the eye a tolerable experience.
Dr. Yanoga - is through with exams, questions & explanation of results.
All good
I keep coming back. It doesn't get any better than that.
