A retinal detachment is a crucial disease as it may lead to blindness. This occurs when liquefied vitreous enters through retinal tears and detached the retina, hence, causing a retinal detachment which constructs the photoreceptor cells of the retina essential for sight and loses blood supply and causing it to die off eventually.

Some patients have indicated that they have been seeing floaters and flash lights and consider if this is one of the indication of a retinal tear. Floaters are actually shadows of opacities in the vitreous cavity thrown onto and kept by the retina. These manner of floaters have been described by patients in all figures and dimensions and is more simply noticed in regions of bright illumination, markedly against a plain light coloured setting.

One method to restore retinal tears is by going through laser eye surgery which would often stands about 15-20 minutes or eye surgeries like linoff's balloon, pneumatic retinopexy, scleral buckling surgery which is up to the patient's decision. Some other popular eye healing that Total Eyecare center deals are cataract operation as well as services for diabetic retinopathy and age related macular degeneration.
