Because of retinal defect  caused by vitreous detachment 
  • HERE YOU CAN SEE HOW A LASERTREATMENT HAPPENS

RETINAL DETACHEMENT
 

CAUSE

The eye is considered to have a hollow sphere.
Which is filled with a gelatinous mass, as clear as glass (hence the name "vitreous").
This mass will shrink progressive by everyone, so that suddenly (from one day to another) the vitreous releases from the retina (the membrane that lined the inside of the eyeball) ;  Sometimes a punch in the eye can suffice. Usually this is without symptoms.

SYMPTOMS OF A VITROUS DETACHMENT

Frequently, however, there are disturbing vitreous bodies (former ties at the level of the retina) right in the center, what then leads to apparently moving dots.
Those early ties sometimes hang onto the retina so that the slightest movement of the gel pulling on the retina (fortunately usually temporary), which leads to typical flash symptoms.

Exceptionally there can occur retina tears, which can evolve into a retinal detachment .

SYMPTOMS OF A RETINAL DETACHMENT

Then you see that a part of the visual field disappears: a CURTAIN FOR THE EYE.

TREATMENT OF A RETINAL DETACHMENT

If defect are DISCOVERED EARLY
, they can be TREATED WITH LASER: These are small fire dots next to the crack, so the retina is firmly welded to the underlying soil nutrient (almost painless, no recording required).

If the retinal defect is DISCOVERED TOO LATE, moisture can accumulate behind the retina and is only of SURGERY in a retina-center "to expect salvation. Such surgery is as routine and gives a high success rate.
Instead of pushing the retina against the wall, the wall get pushed against the retina by sewing in a silicone block (an implant), which held in place by a "belt" of silicone: a "cerclageband"

Rarely, the retina must be PUSHED from the inside out AGAINST THE WALL, through the insertion of silicone oil in the eye.
This should be removed after 3 months! Late cataract can occur (cloudy lens =) by the introduction of silicone oil.
Therefore they try to minimize applying silicone oil.
If some oil should be applied, they sometimes dare to remove the lens preventive, during the operation of the silicone oil!

CARE AFTER AN OPERATION FOR RETINAL DETACHMENT

The vision recovers in six months. The FASTER THE RECOVERY, the BETTER END RESULT will be. In advance you should know, that the visibility will remain bad if the central part of the retina (the macula) was loose before the operation (ie more than a few days). After the surgery can be lived fairly normal. You have to watch out for 6 weeks for a punch in the eye and you should avoid serious exercise. Due to the surgery, your eye can get 2 dioptry more nearsighted. Glasses should be adjusted after 4 to 6 weeks. In the meantime it is sometimes necessary to cover one eye, because the eye that has surgery disturbs the sight.
You can have TEMPORARILY DOUBLE VISION. We usually give a work disability of one month. During that month you have to drop inflammatory eyedrops and you can not swim. Watching TV and reading is no problem!
