What are Retinal Treatments?

Retinal treatments are various methods used to treat retinal diseases. These include injections, laser therapy and surgical interventions; their aim is to maintain retinal health and prevent vision loss.

Vitrectomy Surgery

Vitrectomy Surgery is a surgical operation applied for diseases occurring in the back of the eye. Bleeding may occur in the eye for a number of reasons. At the same time, membrane formation may occur in the eye due to diabetes. Vitrectomy surgery is needed both to stop bleeding and to peel the membranes formed in the eye.

MACROvision (MACROvision) Surgery

MACROvision surgery is one of the most prominent interventions in modern medicine. This surgery is a technique developed to improve some special conditions related to the eye. This method, which aims to improve the quality of vision, is especially promising for individuals with certain eye problems.

Macula Degeneration Treatment

Macula Degeneration is characterised by damage to the central area of the retina. This condition affects central vision and usually occurs with age. The disease is divided into two types: dry type and wet type. The dry type is caused by the deterioration of cells in the macular layer, while the wet type is characterised by the formation of new, abnormal vessels, which can lead to leakage and loss of vision.

Retinal Diseases

Retinal Diseases Eye health is an important part of general health and retinal diseases are serious conditions that threaten eye health. The retina is a sensitive tissue located at the back of the eye that detects light and transmits the image to the brain. Retinal diseases can cause vision loss by impairing the function of this critical tissue. Early diagnosis and effective treatment play an important role in the management of retinal diseases.

Retinal Detachment

Retinal Detachment Retinal detachment, an eye problem that seriously threatens vision, is the separation of the retinal nerve layer from the pigment epithelium layer underneath. It usually develops when fluid leaks between these two layers following a tear or hole in the retina. This separation is similar to the separation of a damp wallpaper from the wall.

Diabetic Retinopathy

Diabetic Retinopathy is a complication that occurs in diabetic patients and affects the retina, the light sensitive layer at the back of the eye. High blood sugar levels can damage the capillaries in the retina, leading to vision problems and blindness in progressive cases.

Retinopathy of Prematurity

Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is an eye disease that occurs in premature and low birth weight babies with abnormal growth of blood vessels in the retina, the light-sensitive tissue layer behind the eye.

The healing process after vitrectomy surgery may take approximately 1-3 weeks. The patient can accelerate the healing process according to the doctor's recommendations.

Treatment of retinal detachment is usually performed by surgical intervention. Vitrectomy or laser treatment may be required to replace the retina.

Methods such as laser therapy, injections or vitrectomy can be used to treat diabetic retinopathy. Early treatment can prevent vision loss.

MAKROvision surgery is a modern treatment method applied to improve some special conditions related to the eye. This treatment can improve the quality of vision.

Retinal treatment is usually performed under local anaesthesia. However, sedation or general anaesthesia may be required in some cases.

Yes, yellow spot disease is divided into dry type and wet type. Dry type is more common and wet type can lead to vision loss if left untreated.

After vitrectomy surgery, patients can usually return to their daily activities within a few days. However, the healing process may take 1-3 weeks.
