 RETINAL DETACHMENT                   

desprendimeinto de retina instituto oftalmologico tres torresThe retina is a transparent tissue at the back of the eye, which helps see the images focused on it by the cornea and the lens. Retinal detachment is often associated with tearing or perforation of the retina, through which the eye fluids may filter. This causes the separation of the retina from the underlying tissues.

Retinal detachment often occurs spontaneously with no underlying cause. Hit can also be caused by injury, diabetes or an inflammatory disorder. It can sometimes be caused by an associated condition called posterior vitreous detachment

During retinal detachment, the bleeding from the small retinal blood vessels can cause opacity on the inside of the eye, which is normally full of vitreous humour. Central vision can be seriously affected if the macula, the part of the retina responsible for fine vision, becomes detached.

RETINAL DETACHMENT SURGERY

TREATMENT

- Laser Surgery

The laser is used in both the preventive treatment of tearing and in the curing of the retinal detachment, in combination with surgical techniques. Its task is to cauterise and seal the layers of the retina, strengthening the adherence of said tissue to the choroid.

- Cryotherapy

Cold therapy or cryotherapy causes the healing of the tear, thereby preventing detachment. This treatment is used by itself or in combination with scleral depression procedures. It is used in those cases in which laser treatment cannot be adequately applied.

- Vitrectomy

When there is abnormal healing, a fibrous tissue or bleeding in the vitreous humour, the retina can be drawn towards the inside of the eye and become detached from its normal position. In these cases, it is necessary to perform a vitrectomy: Small instruments are introduced into the eye (microsurgery) through small lateral openings, the diseased vitreous humour being aspirated, cut out and removed, and replaced by silicon liquid, gas or oil.

Retinal detachment does not have one single cause, although in most cases the vitreous humour is responsible for the lesion. Said substance, a gel with which the eyeball is filled, can become diseased, contracted, fibrotic or inflamed, all of which processes act upon the retina, separating it from the choroid. Detachment is often preceded by holes or tears in the retina, whose symptoms are black spots in the vision or flashes of light.
