Healthy vision depends significantly on the retina — the delicate, light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye responsible for converting light into signals that the brain interprets as images. Any damage to the retina can lead to vision disturbances and, in severe cases, permanent vision loss if not treated on time.
At Surti Shaurya’s Clinic, located in Sion, Mumbai, patients receive comprehensive diagnosis and advanced treatment for a wide range of retinal diseases under the expertise of Dr Rahul Surti, a highly experienced retina surgeon with over 15 years of clinical expertise in managing complex retinal conditions.
Retinal diseases are increasingly common in India due to the rising prevalence of diabetes, hypertension, aging population, and lifestyle factors.
Some of the most frequently treated retina conditions include:
- Diabetic Retinopathy
One of the leading causes of blindness in India. Long-standing diabetes damages retinal blood vessels, causing leakage, swelling, and bleeding.
- Retinal Detachment
A serious emergency condition where the retina separates from the underlying tissue, leading to sudden vision loss.
- Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
Common in elderly individuals, affecting central vision required for reading and recognizing faces.
- Macular Edema
Swelling in the central retina often associated with diabetes or vein occlusion.
- Retinal Vein Occlusion
Blockage of retinal veins leading to bleeding, swelling, and sudden visual impairment.
- Floaters and Vitreous Hemorrhage
Patients may notice black spots, cobwebs, or shadows in vision.
- Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP)
A condition affecting premature babies that requires early screening and treatment.
- Myopic Retinal Degeneration
Seen in patients with high power spectacles (high myopia).
Retinal diseases often progress silently in early stages, making regular eye check-ups essential, especially for high-risk individuals.
Common warning signs include:
- Sudden or gradual decrease in vision
- Blurred or distorted vision
- Black spots, floaters, or flashes of light
- Curtain-like shadow over vision
- Difficulty reading or recognizing faces
- Loss of side vision
- Sudden painless vision loss
- Straight lines appearing bent
If you notice any of these symptoms, immediate consultation with a retina specialist is strongly recommended.
You should consult a retina specialist if:
- You have diabetes for more than 5 years
- Sudden vision loss occurs
- You experience flashes or floaters
- There is eye trauma or injury
- You have high myopia (high spectacle number)
- You are diagnosed with retinal disease during routine eye exam
- There is family history of retinal disorders
- Premature babies require ROP screening
- Vision does not improve with glasses
Early detection significantly improves treatment outcomes and prevents permanent vision damage.
