Are you amazed by these retinal detachment methods? Vice Chairman of Hubei Provincial Medical Association Ophthalmology Branch, Deputy Director of the Fundus Disease Group of the Ophthalmology Branch of the Hubei Medical Association, Chief Physician, Aier Eye Hospital Affiliated to Wuhan University President of Aier Eye Hospital Group Hubei General Hospital Wu Jianhua reminds the following four groups of people to be extra careful 01. Severe myopia High myopia is one of the common causes of retinal detachment. The structure of the inner eye of a person with high myopia changes, and the eyeball gradually expands, becomes larger and longer. As the sclera on the outer wall of the eyeball expands, the retina will be pulled thinner and thinner, which will cause "holes" in the retina and lead to retinal detachment. 02. Middle-aged and elderly people Retinal detachment is also common in middle-aged and elderly people, most of whom have high myopia. As we age, the vitreous body of the eye gradually liquefies, accompanied by various retinal degenerations, and the risk of retinal detachment increases. 03. Overuse of eyes Among young people, more and more people are suffering from retinal detachment, mainly due to electronic radiation and excessive use of the eyes. Especially for people with severe myopia, whose eye axis is longer than normal people and whose retina is relatively thinner, once the eyes are overly tired, such as watching TV series or playing games all night, there is a risk of retinal detachment. 04. Diabetes patients One of the common complications of diabetes is eye disease. The longer the disease lasts, the greater the chance of retinopathy. In the late stages of diabetes, concurrent retinopathy or trauma may cause vitreous traction, leading to tractional retinal detachment. Kind tips President Wu Jianhua reminds: Once retinal detachment occurs, the retinal photoreceptor cells will not receive adequate nutrition. If not repositioned in time, the retina will atrophy and degenerate, causing irreversible damage to visual function. Therefore, when discomfort symptoms occur, early diagnosis and early treatment are necessary. The fundus refers to the tissue at the back of the eyeball that cannot be seen with the naked eye. There are many types of fundus diseases, most of which cause great damage to visual function, and early lesions are difficult to detect. High-risk groups must undergo regular inspections to eliminate risks. Due to lack of understanding, many patients with fundus diseases do not receive timely and professional diagnosis and treatment, resulting in irreversible damage to vision, some even completely blind, and late-stage treatment is more difficult, so fundus examinations are very necessary. |
