The retina is the light-sensitive layer of tissue at the back of the inner eye. It acts like the film in a camera – images come through the eye’s lens and are focused on the retina. 

DIABETIC RETINOPATHY:

Diabetic retinopathy is damage to the eye’s retina that occurs with long-term diabetes.

Diabetic retinopathy is caused by damage to blood vessels of the retina. The retina is the layer of tissue at the back of the inner eye. It changes light and images that enter the eye into nerve signals that are sent to the brain.

RETINAL DETACHMENT: 

Retinal detachment is a separation of the light-sensitive membrane in the back of the eye (the retina) from its supporting layers. 

RETINOPATHY OF PREMATURITY:

Alternative Names: Retrolental fibroplasia; ROP
