TYPES OF RETINAL PROBLEMS

RETINAL DETACHMENT
It is defined by the presence of fluid under the retina. It usually occurs when fluid passes through a retinal tear, causing the retina to lift away from the underlying layer. The main symptoms are loss/blurring of vision, curtain-like shadow over the visual field & loss of field of vision. Retinal detachment surgery cost in Delhi is quite affordable now and available easily at The Sight Avenue.
DIABETIC RETINOPATHY
If you have diabetes, the tiny blood vessels in the back of your eye can deteriorate & leak fluid into & under the retina. In the early stage, it may remain asymptomatic. Later, it causes the retina to swell which may blur or distort your vision. It can, in advanced stages, cause retinal detachment. You can also develop abnormal blood vessels that break & bleed. The main symptom is floaters in the early stages followed by the sudden loss of vision.Underscores the importance of timely intervention by the best eye doctor in Delhi.

FAQ
Although retinal diseases vary greatly, the majority of them cause visible symptoms. Any part of your retina, a thin tissue layer on the inside back wall of your eye, can be affected by retinal diseases. Symptoms of retina problems such as floating specks, blurred/distorted vision, defects in the side vision and lost vision.
This vital tissue is affected by retinal disorders. They can impair your vision, and some are severe enough to result in blindness. Retinal detachment, diabetic eye disease, macular degeneration and retinoblastoma can all cause blindness if left untreated.
The risk factors involved with retinal disorders include the following:
- Aging
- Smoking
- Obesity
- Diabetes & other diseases
- Eye trauma
- Family history of retinal diseases
As you get older, your chances of developing retinal detachment increase. You are also more vulnerable if you have or have had a history of eye injury, previous tears or detachments in retina or intraocular surgery, familial history of retinal detachment, significant myopia and retina thinning.
The recommended post-op precautions — and how long it takes to get back on feet — can all be influenced by a patient's health condition, type of surgery, detachment severity, and detachment location. For a few days after the surgery, one may experience eye pain and blurred vision. For several weeks, your eye may be swollen, red, or tender.
