A <strong>detached retina (retinal detachment)<\/strong> happens when the retina separates from the layer beneath it, which supplies it with oxygen and nutrients. The detached part stops working, and without treatment the damage can become permanent.<\/p>\r\n      <p>A detachment can start in the side vision and spread towards the <strong>macula<\/strong>, the centre of the retina responsible for sharp reading and face vision. Retinal detachment affects roughly 1 in 10,000 people each year, and the risk rises with age, particularly after 50.

Vision can also become blurred or distorted, usually in one eye. The more of the retina that detaches, especially the central macula, the more vision is affected.<\/p>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n        <details>\r\n          <summary><h3>What does a detached retina feel like?<\/h3><i aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/summary>\r\n          <p>A detached retina usually does not hurt. The signs are visual, not physical: flashes, floaters, a shadow or blurred vision. Because there is no pain, people sometimes delay getting help, which increases the risk of permanent vision loss.<\/p>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n        <details>\r\n          <summary><h3>What causes a detached retina?<\/h3><i aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/summary>\r\n          <p>Most detachments start with a retinal tear. With age, the vitreous gel inside the eye shrinks and can pull on the retina hard enough to tear it, letting fluid pass underneath. High myopia, previous eye surgery such as cataract surgery, eye injury, a previous retinal tear and a family history all increase the risk.<\/p>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n        <details>\r\n          <summary><h3>Can a detached retina heal on its own?<\/h3><i aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/summary>\r\n          <p>No. A detached retina does not reattach by itself and needs treatment. A retinal tear found before it detaches can often be sealed with laser or freezing treatment, but a detachment needs surgery.<\/p>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n        <details>\r\n          <summary><h3>Can a detached retina be fixed?<\/h3><i aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/summary>\r\n          <p>Yes, in most cases. Retinal detachment repairs succeed in about 9 out of 10 cases, according to the American Society of Retina Specialists, although some people need more than one operation. How much vision returns depends on how long the retina was detached and whether the macula was involved.<\/p>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n        <details>\r\n          <summary><h3>How quickly does a detached retina need treatment?<\/h3><i aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/summary>\r\n          <p>As soon as possible. Sudden flashes, floaters or a shadow need a same-day eye examination. Detachments that have not yet reached the macula are treated urgently to protect central vision, because the longer the retina stays detached, the higher the risk of permanent loss.<\/p>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n        <details>\r\n          <summary><h3>Can a detached retina cause blindness?<\/h3><i aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/summary>\r\n          <p>Yes. Without treatment, a detached retina usually leads to permanent vision loss in the affected eye. Prompt surgery gives the best chance of saving sight, although some vision may remain reduced if the macula was detached.<\/p>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n        <details>\r\n          <summary><h3>Is detached retina surgery painful?<\/h3><i aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/summary>\r\n          <p>Surgery is usually done under local anaesthetic, so you are awake but the eye is numbed and you should not feel pain.

You may not be able to drive during this time. Vision can keep improving for several months, and most people eventually return to their normal activities.<\/p>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n        <details>\r\n          <summary><h3>Can I fly after retinal detachment surgery?<\/h3><i aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/summary>\r\n          <p>Not while there is a gas bubble in your eye. The gas expands at altitude and can dangerously raise eye pressure. Your surgeon will tell you when the gas has fully absorbed and it is safe to fly. Silicone oil does not carry the same flying restriction.<\/p>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n        <details>\r\n          <summary><h3>How common is a detached retina?<\/h3><i aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/summary>\r\n          <p>Retinal detachment is relatively uncommon, affecting roughly 1 in 10,000 people each year. The risk rises with age, especially after 50, and is higher in people who are very nearsighted, have had eye surgery or an eye injury, or have a family history.<\/p>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n        <details>\r\n          <summary><h3>Can the symptoms of a detached retina come and go?<\/h3><i aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/summary>\r\n          <p>Yes. Flashes and floaters can seem to come and go, but that does not mean the problem has resolved. A tear or small detachment can spread over hours or days, so any new symptoms should be checked urgently.<\/p>\r\n        <\/details>\r\n        <details>\r\n          <summary><h3>Can a detached retina cause double vision or dizziness?<\/h3><i aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/summary>\r\n          <p>Not directly.
