How does retinal detachment affect your vision in the long term?

Retinal detachment is a serious eye condition that can have lasting implications on your vision if not treated promptly. The retina, a thin layer of tissue at the back of the eye, is responsible for detecting light and sending visual signals to your brain. When this delicate tissue separates from its supporting layer, it can lead to significant visual disturbances and, in some cases, permanent loss of sight. Here, an esteemed opthalmologist explores how retinal detachment can impact your vision in the long term.

YAG laser capsulotomy

After cataract surgery, some patients may experience clouding in the capsule that holds the lens implant. This leads to what is commonly referred to as ‘Posterior Capsule Opacification (PCO)’ or ‘secondary cataract’. We offer YAG laser capsulotomy at Blue Fin Vision Eye Clinic on Harley Street, London, which is a safe and effective laser treatment designed to address this issue. Furthermore, it can help to restore your vision to its post-operative best.

What can be done for cataract with macular degeneration, macular hole, macular membrane or vitreomacular traction?

A cataract (cloudy lens) is one of the most common eye conditions in those over the age of 60 years, resulting in blurred, reduced vision. In addition, the macula (the centre of the retina responsible for your fine, detailed vision and your colour vision), can also become affected as we get older. In this article, leading ophthalmologist Dr Patel Gordon-Bennet discusses the treatment options for those with cataract and macular issues.
