HIGH SUCCESS RETINA SURGERY • The retina is the inner lining of our eyeballs, which are filled with a clear gel. When this lining detaches or tears, it immediately causes blatant visual distortions. If any of the following symptoms occur, an individual should immediately seek medical attention, because rapid treatment increases the potential for a 100 percent recover from surgery. • Photopsia • flashes of light appearing around the exterior of the field of vision. • Floaters • a sudden increase is a trigger, but it is perfectly normal in consistent low appearances. • Blurred Vision • specifically in a ring shape consisting of hair like strokes around the center of the field of vision.
