  4. Introduction The retina is an essential part of the human eye that plays a critical role in our ability to see. Located at the back of the eye, it converts light into neural signals, which are then transmitted to the brain. However, various retina diseases can disrupt this process and significantly impair vision. In this presentation, we delve into the world of retina diseases, exploring their causes, risk factors, and treatments.

  5. Treatment Options forRetina Diseases 02

  6. Treatment Options for Retina Diseases Medications Anti-VEGF Injections: Used for wet AMD and diabetic retinopathy to inhibit abnormal blood vessel growth. Steroids: Help reduce inflammation in certain conditions. Laser Therapy Laser treatments can seal retinal tears, reduce swelling, or destroy abnormal blood vessels. Vitrectomy A surgical procedure that removes the vitreous gel to repair retinal detachments or other conditions. Lifestyle Modifications For conditions like diabetic retinopathy, managing blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol is essential.

  10. Diagnosis of Retina Diseases Fundus Examination A detailed examination of the retina using special lenses and slit lamp. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) This imaging technique provides cross-sectional images of the retina, aiding in the diagnosis of macular conditions. Fluorescein Angiography A dye is injected into the bloodstream to highlight blood vessels in the retina for detailed imaging. Ultrasound Imaging Used to detect retinal detachment or tumors when the view of the retina is obscured.
