Detached retina (retinal detachment)

A detached retina occurs when the delicate layer at the back of your eye, known as the retina, becomes loose. It is crucial to seek prompt treatment to prevent lasting damage to your vision. You can contact 111 or visit their website for assistance. If tests indicate that your retina might be detached or has begun to detach (retinal tear), you will be referred to a hospital for surgery. Typically, this procedure will help prevent any further deterioration of your eyesight.
