Prevention of retinal detachment

Retinal detachment is a serious eye disease, if not prevented and treated, it may lead to permanent visual loss. Here are several ways to prevent retinal detachment:

 How to prevent and treat retinal detachment?

First, regular eye examination is the key to prevent retinal detachment. Carry out a comprehensive eye examination at least once a year, including vision test, fundus examination and visual field test. This can detect and treat any eye problems that may lead to retinal detachment as soon as possible.

Secondly, pay attention to eye health and avoid excessive eye use. Long term use of electronic equipment, reading or other activities with heavy visual burden will increase the risk of retinal detachment. Therefore, you should rest your eyes properly, perform eye exercises regularly, and avoid working in strong light or working in close proximity for a long time.

In addition, people with high myopia need special attention. Myopia is a major risk factor for retinal detachment. Therefore, people with high myopia should receive regular monitoring from ophthalmologists, and follow the doctor's recommendations for treatment and prevention.

Treatment of retinal detachment

The treatment of retinal detachment depends on the degree and cause of detachment. Here are some common treatments:

If the retinal detachment is small but still needs treatment, doctors may use laser photocoagulation or cryotherapy to fix the retina in place. This treatment is usually non-invasive and can be carried out in ophthalmic hospitals or ophthalmic clinics.

If the retinal detachment is serious, surgery may be required. Common operations include scleral fixation and vitreous surgery. These operations need to be performed in professional ophthalmic hospitals by experienced ophthalmologists.

The success rate of treating retinal detachment is high, but the recovery time may be longer. After surgery, patients need to visit again regularly to ensure that retina has been fixed with theout other complications.
