Incidence is about 1 in 10,000 people each year, rising to 3% in people who have undergone cataract surgery Although it does not cause pain, it causes a blurring of vision that is simulated by a gray veil moving across the optic field. Retinal detachment is treatable, but must be treated immediately or it can cause vision loss and, in the worst case, blindness.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Info&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.9&#8243; use_background_color_gradient=&#8221;on&#8221; background_color_gradient_start=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; background_color_gradient_end=&#8221;rgba(255,255,255,0.58)&#8221; background_color_gradient_direction=&#8221;90deg&#8221; background_color_gradient_overlays_image=&#8221;on&#8221; background_image=&#8221;https:\/\/laserlens.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/family-doctor-035.png&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;bottom_center&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;3px|||||&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.9&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.7&#8243;][et_pb_accordion open_toggle_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; open_toggle_background_color=&#8221;#216477&#8243; closed_toggle_text_color=&#8221;#216477&#8243; icon_color=&#8221;#216477&#8243; use_icon_font_size=&#8221;on&#8221; icon_font_size=&#8221;20px&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.9&#8243; toggle_text_color=&#8221;#216477&#8243; toggle_level=&#8221;h3&#8243; toggle_font=&#8221;Open Sans|600|||||||&#8221; toggle_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; toggle_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; closed_toggle_font=&#8221;Open Sans|600|||||||&#8221; body_font=&#8221;Open Sans||||||||&#8221; body_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; body_font_size=&#8221;15px&#8221; body_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;5px||||false|false&#8221; toggle_font_size_tablet=&#8221;16px&#8221; toggle_font_size_phone=&#8221;12px&#8221; toggle_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; body_font_size_tablet=&#8221;14px&#8221; body_font_size_phone=&#8221;&#8221; body_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; border_radii=&#8221;on|12px|12px|12px|12px&#8221; border_width_all=&#8221;5px&#8221; border_color_all=&#8221;rgba(0,0,0,0)&#8221; border_width_all_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; border_width_all_phone=&#8221;0px&#8221; border_width_all_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;Warning Symptoms&#8221; open=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.9&#8243; toggle_level=&#8221;h3&#8243; toggle_font=&#8221;Open Sans|600|||||||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Flashes, new flies (especially when accompanied by flashes), a shadow in the periphery of your vision, a dark curtain moving across your field of vision.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;Dangerous Groups&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.9&#8243; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Myopia<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">History of cataract surgery, trauma, retinal detachment in the other eye<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Glaucoma<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Family history of retinal detachment Peripheral Degenerative Lesions Predisposing to Retinal Detachment:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8211; Lattice Degeneration<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">-Crack<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">-Acquired Retinoschisis<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;Treatment&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.9&#8243; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Detached patients need immediate surgery to reattach the retina to its normal position.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All surgery has risks, however a detachment that is not treated surgically usually results in permanent vision loss, or total blindness.
