STOP myopia to avoid retinal detachment
Myopia, or nearsightedness, is a common refractive error that affects millions of people worldwide. While myopia itself may seem like a minor inconvenience, it can significantly increase the risk of more severe eye conditions, including retinal detachment. In this article, we'll explore the link between myopia and retinal detachment and discuss strategies to stop myopia progression to prevent this potentially sight-threatening complication.
Understanding Myopia and Retinal Detachment:
Myopia is a condition where close objects are seen clearly, but distant objects appear blurred. It occurs when the eyeball grows too long, causing light rays to focus in front of the retina instead of directly on it. While myopia is generally correctable with glasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgery, severe myopia can lead to complications such as retinal detachment.
Retinal detachment occurs when the retina, the thin layer of tissue lining the back of the eye, pulls away from its normal position. This separation can cause vision loss or blindness if left untreated, making it a serious medical emergency. Myopia is a significant risk factor for retinal detachment, as elongated eyeballs associated with high myopia can increase tension on the retina, making it more prone to tears or detachment.
