Retinal Detachment
This serious eye condition happens when your retina -- a layer of tissue at the back of your eye that processes light -- pulls away from the tissue around it. Since the retina can't work properly when this happens, you could have permanent vision lossif you don’t get it treated right away.
SYMPTOMS
- A detached retina doesn't hurt. It can happen with no warning at all. But you might notice:
- Flashes of light
- Seeing lots of new "floaters" (small flecks or threads)
- Darkening of your peripheral (side) vision
CAUSES
The following factors increase your risk of retinal detachment:
- Aging — retinal detachment is more common in people over age 50.
- Previous retinal detachment in one eye.
- A family history of retinal detachment.
- Extreme nearsightedness (myopia)
- Previous eye surgery, such as cataract removal.
- Previous severe eye injury.
