Traction detachment of retina - what does this mean
Traction detachment of the retina occurs when scar tissue forms on the retina, which pulls on it and causes it to separate from the back wall of the eye. this can occur due to a variety of conditions, such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, or trauma to the eye.
What happens during the disease - traction detachment of retina
Traction detachment of the retina is caused by scar tissue that forms on the surface of the retina due to the presence of an underlying pathological condition, such as a retinal tear, vitreous detachment, or diabetic retinopathy. the scar tissue pulls on the retina, causing it to separate from its underlying layer of blood vessels and nerve fibers. this can cause vision loss, as the retina is no longer receiving nourishment from the underlying tissues. if not treated quickly, the retina may become permanently detached, leading to permanent vision loss.

Traction detachment of retina - Prevention
The best way to prevent traction detachment of the retina is to maintain regular eye exams and immediately seek medical attention if any symptoms occur such as blurred vision, flashes of light, floaters, or a curtain-like effect in the vision. additionally, it is important to keep any chronic conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure under control, as they can increase the risk of retinal detachment.
