Retinal Tear near Naples

A Retinal Tear is most commonly found along the peripheral edges of the retina. Sometimes it is referred to as a retinal break or hole.  This is a serious condition, and left untreated may lead to a retinal detachment.

Cause

The tear may be caused by a trauma, a pre-existing eye condition, or the normal aging process. 

Symptoms

If you notice a sudden increase in floaters, web like strings appearing in your vision, or flashes of light in the dark or a dimly lit room, these may be related to a retinal tear.  You may not have any symptoms at all.

Diagnosis

A retinal tear is sometimes discovered during a routine dilated eye examination.  You will need to see a retinal surgeon, to confirm and treat the diagnosis of retinal tear, break or hole.

Treatment

Retinal Tears require a laser procedure in the Retina Surgeon’s office to prevent a retinal detachment. 

Prevention

There is no absolute way to prevent a retinal tear.  In persons with certain underlying retinal conditions, prophylactic laser may be performed to reduce the risks.
