Retina: The retina is the nerve layer that lines the back of the eye, senses light, and creates impulses that travel through the optic nerve to the brain. There is a small area, called the macula, in the retina that contains special light-sensitive cells. The macula allows us to see fine details clearly.
A detached retina is a tear or dislocation of the eyeâs back layer of light-sensitive cells and nerve endings. This can be caused by a severe blow, but it is more commonly the result of a shrinking of the vitreous inside the eyeball, which may occur with aging. Severe shortsightedness is a risk factor, as is diabetes. Retinal detachment also occurs in about 3 percent of people who have undergone cataract surgery. It is essential to seek treatment immediately, since a detached retina can cause complete loss of vision. Go to the nearest emergency room or ophthalmologist.
