About Vitreoretina
Vision is a process that occurs through an integrated part of a complex visual system. The retina, a light-sensitive tissue inside the eyeball, plays a crucial role in this system, enabling us to see in great detail. Disorders of retinal tissue can lead to permanent visual acuity problems if not treated promptly. Common conditions associated with retinal disorders include macular degeneration, retinal vascular disorders (both arterial and venous), diabetic retinopathy, retinal tears, and retinal detachment. To prevent potential vision loss, it’s essential to examine the retina, especially when symptoms indicative of retinal disorders arise. Early detection and treatment can significantly improve the chances of maintaining and enhancing visual acuity.
