Retinal Disorders

Retinal disorders refer to a range of conditions that affect the retina, the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye responsible for sending visual information to the brain. Common disorders include age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal detachment. Symptoms can vary but often include blurred vision, dark spots, or sudden vision loss. These conditions may result from aging, diabetes, or injury. Early detection and treatment are crucial to prevent permanent vision loss. Regular eye exams are essential for monitoring eye health, especially for those at higher risk.
