Common Retina Conditions
The retina is the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye. It can be affected by diabetes, age, high myopia, eye injury, blood pressure, vascular disease and inflammation. Common conditions include diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema, retinal tear, retinal detachment, age-related macular degeneration, retinal vein occlusion, macular hole and epiretinal membrane.
Diagnosis At BMH Chandigarh
Retina diagnosis may include dilated eye examination, slit-lamp biomicroscopy, OCT scan, fundus photography, FFA imaging and retinal laser assessment. OCT helps detect macular swelling or fluid. FFA helps map leaking or blocked retinal blood vessels, especially in diabetic eye disease.
Diabetic patients should not wait for blurred vision. Retinopathy can begin before symptoms appear.
Treatment Options
Treatment depends on the condition. It may include observation, diabetes and blood pressure control, retinal laser, anti-VEGF injection planning, macular edema management, retinal tear laser or referral for retina surgery when needed. Retinal detachment symptoms need urgent attention.
