Retina Conditions we treat
Our centre specializes in diagnosing and treating a broad spectrum of vitreoretinal diseases, including, but not limited to:
Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is a diabetes complication affecting the eyes, leading to damage to the blood vessels in the retina.
Retinal Detachment
Retinal detachment is a medical condition where the retina separates from the back of the eye, potentially leading to vision loss.
Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is a progressive eye disease that affects the macula, leading to vision loss in older adults.
Macular Holes
Macular holes are small breaks in the macula, the central part of the retina, which can cause blurred or distorted central vision.
Retinal Vein Occlusions
Retinal vein occlusions are blockages of the veins in the retina, leading to vision problems due to swelling and bleeding in the affected area.
Uveitis
Uveitis is inflammation of the uvea, the middle layer of the eye, which can cause pain, redness, and vision problems.

Recovery times can vary depending on the individual and the specific procedure performed. Your surgeon will provide detailed post- operative care instructions tailored to your needs.
The frequency of retinal examinations can vary based on factors such as age, medical history, and risk factors for retinal diseases. Generally, it is recommended to undergo a comprehensive eye exam at least once every two years. However, for individuals at higher risk for retinal conditions, more frequent visits may be advised.
While not all retinal disorders can be prevented, you can take proactive measures to reduce your risk. This includes effectively managing systemic health conditions like diabetes and hypertension, wearing sunglasses to protect your eyes from UV light, refraining from smoking, and scheduling regular eye exams for early detection and treatment of potential issues.
