Eye Tips: Beware Of These 5 Retina Problems

Eye Tips: Beware Of These 5 Retina Problems 

1 Macular Degeneration: It is a disease characterised by a breakdown of the macula, the central and the most sensitive part of the retina- the area we use to read and carry out our finest visual tasks. 

Two common forms of Macular Degeneration are: 

• Dry macular degeneration
  
  
• Wet macular degeneration

Common symptoms of macular degeneration includes blurring of central vision, blind spots in the central vision, distortion of lines and shapes and diminished color vision. 

The progression and severity of dry macular degeneration can be reduced with medication but there is no cure for wet macular degeneration. However, several treatment options like Thermal lasers, Photodynamic Therapy and Anti-VEGF medication are available. 

Early detection is particularly important if someone in the family has been diagnosed with macular degeneration. So, if you are looking for a retina specialist in Delhi NCR, contact us immediately. We offer retina treatment for macular degeneration at affordable cost. 

2 Diabetic Retinopathy: It is a complication of diabetes that weakens the blood vessels that supply nourishment to the retina. When the weak vessels leak, swell or develop thin branches, vision loss may occur. In its advanced stages, the disease can cause blurred or cloudy vision, floaters and blind spots and eventually, blindness.

3 Posterior Vitreous Detachment (PVD): It is a separation of the vitreous gel from the inner back wall of the eye and is usually associated with floaters and flashing lights. The liquefaction of vitreous gel is usually an age-related change that continues until the vitreous separates from the retina to which it is loosely attached. Usually PVDs do not cause problems except that occasionally it may cause retinal tears which if not treated may cause a detached retina. For any query or treatment from the best retina doctor in Delhi, contact Sharp Sight (Group of Eye Hospitals).

 4 Retinal Detachment: When the retina detaches, it separates from its normal position. A retinal detachment can occur from retina holes, retinal tears or from traction on the retina from scar tissue on the retinal surface or in the vitreous gel. It can occur at any age, but is commonly seen in people over 40 years. It affects men more than women. 

A retinal detachment is a medical emergency. Anyone experiencing the symptoms of a retinal detachment should see an eye care professional immediately because if not promptly treated, a retinal detachment can cause permanent loss of vision. 

Treatment: Cryotherapy, Laser Treatment, Scleral Buckle, Injection of Bubble.

5 Macula Hole: As the name suggests, it is a hole in the macula, the central most sensitive part of the retina. It occurs when the shrinking vitreous gel adheres to and stretches a hole in the macula. As the hole progresses and enlarges, a blind spot develops in the central vision that impairs the ability to see. Treatment: Vitrectomy surgery is the most effective retina treatment option to repair a macula hole and we have the best retina specialist in Delhi NCR.
