Retina Diseases

What is Retina Diseases ?

The retina is the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye responsible for transmitting visual information to the brain. Diseases affecting the retina can cause severe vision problems and, if left untreated, may lead to permanent blindness. Some common retina diseases include age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment, and retinitis pigmentosa.

  • Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD): A leading cause of vision loss in people over 50, AMD affects the macula, the central part of the retina.
  • Diabetic Retinopathy: A complication of diabetes, diabetic retinopathy damages the blood vessels in the retina, potentially causing vision loss.
  • Retinal Detachment: A medical emergency where the retina pulls away from its normal position, leading to vision loss if not treated promptly.
  • Retinitis Pigmentosa: A rare genetic disorder that affects the retina’s ability to respond to light, resulting in progressive vision loss.
