Retina
The retina, a thin layer of tissue at the back of the eye, is crucial for capturing light and sending visual signals to the brain. Retinal diseases, such as macular degeneration, retinal detachment, and diabetic retinopathy, can severely impact vision.
Treatment Options:
- Macular Degeneration: Treatments include anti-VEGF injections to reduce abnormal blood vessel growth and laser therapy to prevent leakage.
- Retinal Detachment: Prompt surgical intervention is required to reattach the retina.
- Diabetic Retinopathy: Management includes controlling blood sugar levels, laser treatments to seal leaking blood vessels, and injections to reduce swelling. Regular eye exams and early detection are vital to effectively manage retinal conditions and prevent vision loss
