What is Retinal Detachment?
Retina is the light sensitive layer of tissue that lines the inside of the eye and sends visual messages through the optic nerve to the brain. When the retina detaches, it is lifted or pulled from its normal position. If not treated promptly, retinal detachment can cause permanent vision loss.
Key Points to Remember:
- If you have any sudden change in vision, see an eye doctor immediately!
