Retinal Detachment
Overview & Our Approach to Retinal Detachment
Retinal detachment (RD) is a serious and potentially vision-threatening condition that requires immediate medical attention. The retina is a delicate layer of tissue at the back of the eye that is essential for capturing visual information and sending it to the brain. When the retina detaches, it is lifted or pulled away from its normal position, disrupting its ability to function properly. Without prompt treatment, retinal detachment can lead to permanent vision loss, making it one of the most common causes for emergency room visits related to critical eye issues.
Our approach to retinal detachment focuses on rapid diagnosis, immediate intervention, and comprehensive post-surgical care to maximize the chances of preserving vision ensuring that patients receive the support they need to recover and maintain their vision.

Symptoms & Causes of Retinal Detachment
Symptoms of of Retinal Detachment:
- Sudden Appearance of Floaters: A sudden increase in small, dark shapes that float across your field of vision.
- Flashes of Light: Brief flashes of light, especially in the peripheral vision.
- Shadow or Curtain Over Vision: A shadow or curtain that seems to fall over a portion of your visual field, often starting from the side and spreading inward.
- Blurred Vision: Rapidly worsening blurred vision, which may affect one or both eyes.
- Reduced Peripheral Vision: A gradual loss of side vision as the detachment progresses.
Causes of Retinal Detachment:
- Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment: The most common type, caused by a tear or break in the retina that allows fluid to seep underneath, separating it from the underlying tissue.
- Tractional Retinal Detachment: Occurs when scar tissue on the retina’s surface contracts, pulling the retina away from the back of the eye. This is often seen in people with diabetes or other conditions that cause abnormal blood vessels to grow on the retina.
- Exudative Retinal Detachment: Caused by fluid accumulating beneath the retina without a tear or break, often due to inflammation, injury, or other underlying eye conditions.
Other Risk Factors:
- Age: The risk increases with age, particularly in individuals over 50.
- Severe Myopia (Nearsightedness): Individuals with severe nearsightedness are at higher risk due to the shape and thinning of the retina.
- Previous Eye Surgery: Surgeries such as cataract removal can increase the risk.
- Eye Injuries: Trauma to the eye can lead to retinal tears or detachment.
- Family History: A family history of retinal detachment increases your risk.
