Having gained much experience in this subject with much specialisation in carrying out eye surgery such as cataract surgery as well as healing diabetic eye diseases for patients, he holds a honourable image in the eyes of many. A retinal detachment is a important disease as it may lead to blindness. This starts when liquefied vitreous enters through retinal tears and detached the retina, so, causing a retinal detachment which creates the photoreceptor cells of the retina critical for vision and loses blood supply and causing it to die off eventually.
Some patients have commented that they have been seeing floaters and flash lights and consider if this is one of the appearance of a retinal tear. Floaters are actually shadows of opacities in the vitreous cavity hurl onto and appreciated by the retina. These kind of floaters have been defined by patients in all colors and sizes and is more simply noticed in areas of bright illumination, markedly against a simple light coloured backdrop.
One technique to cure retinal tears is by enduring laser eye surgery which would regularly hold about 15-20 minutes or eye surgeries like linoff's balloon, pneumatic retinopexy, scleral buckling surgery which is up to the patient's choice. Some other well-known eye healing that Total Eyecare center offers are cataract operation as well as services for diabetic retinopathy and age related macular degeneration.
