Retinal detachment is a serious eye condition characterized by the separation of the light-sensitive retina from its natural support. This separation prevents the retina from properly transmitting images to the brain, resulting in a significant decrease in vision.

Without prompt surgical treatment, the detachment can progress and lead to irreversible vision loss.

Risks and Side Effects

  • Swelling of the eye and face.
  • Pains.
  • Vision disturbance.

Types of retinal detachment

There are three major types of retinal detachment:

Retinal detachment: Recognizing the signs

Retinal detachment can be insidious, with no symptoms at first. However, if a significant portion of the retina is detached, alarming signs may appear:

Don't wait. The sooner a detachment is diagnosed and treated, the better the chances of preserving your vision.

Causes of retinal detachment

Several factors can cause retinal detachment:

Diagnosis of retinal detachment

Indirect ophthalmoscopy is the gold standard for accurate detection and classification of retinal detachment. Although useful for examining the posterior pole, direct ophthalmoscopy may miss peripheral lesions. Additional examination of the peripheral retina using indirect ophthalmoscopy with scleral depression or biomicroscopy with a 3-mirror lens is necessary.

When media opacities prevent direct visualization of the fundus, high-frequency ophthalmoscopy allows indirect assessment of the retina and the presence of detachment.

Retinal detachment treatment in Turkey

To repair a detached retina, surgery is essential. This delicate operation is performed by an ophthalmologist who specializes in retinal diseases.

Several surgical techniques can be used depending on the severity and extent of the detachment:

The choice of surgical technique depends on the ophthalmologist's assessment of your case. The goal is always to repair the retinal detachment and preserve as much of your vision as possible.

Retinal Detachment treatment FAQ in Turkey

Would the vision be recovered immediately after the surgery?

Reuniting the retina surgically does not mean immediate vision recovery. A slight decrease in visual acuity will be seen after the operation.

What is the success rate of retinal detachment treatment in Turkey?

The success rate of retina reattachment surgery in our clinics in Turkey is 90%.

Is vitrectomy for retinal detachment painful?

No, vitrectomy is painless during the procedure, as it is performed under local or general anesthesia. After the surgery, mild discomfort, tingling, or the sensation of a foreign body in the eye may last a few days, but eye drops or anti-inflammatory medications prescribed by the ophthalmologist can relieve these symptoms.

What is the recovery like after surgery?

After retinal detachment surgery, vision gradually improves over several weeks. Eye rest and sometimes a specific head position are necessary, and regular follow-up is essential to prevent complications.

Can retinal detachment recur?    

Yes, there is a risk of retinal detachment recurring, especially in cases of multiple tears or after surgery. Regular follow-up is essential.
