Retinal detachment is when the retina peels off from the underlying supportive tissue. The retina is the innermost layer of the eye that reacts to light and forms images. It is a medical emergency.

Symptoms:

1. Aging
2. Injury to the eye
3. Injury to the head
4. Family history of Retinal Detachment
5. Myopia of long standing
6. Other eye diseases like uveitis
7. Post cataract surgery
8. Diabetic Retinopathy
9. Sickle Cell Disease

Treatment:

Laser Surgery or freeze treatment known as cryopexy is used to treat retinal detachment. Surgical results are best if the macula (a point in the retina where the light is concentrated and images are formed) is not affected.

Homeopathy has no role to play in the treatment of Retinal Detachment.
