Detached Retina is a common condition which may require Eye surgery in UAE. As the name of the condition clearly mentions it is when the retina is pulled away from the back of the eye which is its normal position. Retina plays the key role in sending visual images through the optic nerve to the brain. If the retina is detached the vision can get blurred. Unless it is treated it can lead to blindness. Symptoms of a pulled retina are flashing lights, veil or grey curtain moving across the vision, floaters, etc. These symptoms can be cause of some other reason, but it is advised to seek the consult of a ophthalmologist to confirm.
This condition can be caused with age. The eyes are filled with a collagen clear gel known as vitreous between the lens and the retina. The vitreous usually pulls away from the retina with no issue. But with age when it tries to pull away it may pull too hard and cause a tear in the retina which can lead to retinal detachment. Fluid then could pass in by the retinal tear and completely pull away the retina from the back.
There are many conditions that can lead to retinal detachment. Glaucoma, nearsightedness, trauma, family history, cataract surgery are few of the common reasons. If it is diagnosed early when it is only a tear in the retina it can be treated by laser treatment or by cryotherapy treatment which will help to set the retina back in the eye. These treatments generally cause no discomfort. If the retina is totally detached surgery may be required to return it to its place at the back of the eye.
If you like to learn more about retinal detachment or if you are at high risk contact your ophthalmologist today for a check-up.
