What Causes Retina Detachment?
Retina detachment occurs when the retina, which is located inside the back of the eye, begins to separate from the blood vessels (choroid) that supply it and help keep it healthy. This is an urgent condition, because as with most of the rest of the body tissues, separation from blood supply can lead to quick degeneration of the retina, creating tissue death or permanent damage. There are several potential causes of retina detachment, which aren’t always predictable, though often symptoms of the condition are fairly obvious and treatment outcome may be good when people see their doctors promptly.
