What Is Retina?
Retina is a thin layer of tissue, lining the back of your eyeball, where arteries and veins cross over each other.Its job is to turn the light into signals to the brain.
What Is Blocked Retina?
If somehow, a vein in the retina becomes blocked, it is called Retinal vein occlusion. The result can be blurry vision or even sudden permanent blindness in that particular eye.
Keeping blood from draining from the retina leads to rise in pressure inside your eye and can cause bleeding, swelling and fluid leaks. It can seriously damage your eye in minutes.
If an artery hardens, it presses against a vein and narrows the opening, causing choppy blood flow that can lead to clotting. Individuals, who have diabetes, high blood pressure and other conditions that can affect the blood vessels, should take advice from Retinal surgeon in Melbourne, as they are more likely to have this issue.
Symptoms
It is not always possible to understand that you are going to have the problem. Often, it occurs in one eye. People with blockage in smaller blood vessels, usually have no symptoms. Sometimes, you may identify blurry or missing vision, dark spots or floating lines in your vision, pain as well as pressure in the eye.
