This separation can cause retinal tears or holes, through which the vitreous gel gradually seeps and can end up detaching the retina completely. <\/p>\n<p>When this occurs, the affected area stops functioning properly and generates an abrupt loss of vision. In order to prevent the damage suffered from producing retinal atrophy, chronic ocular inflammation, or even causing severe visual limitation that is irreversible, this condition should be considered a medical emergency and should be treated immediately by an ophthalmologist.[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221;][toggles style=&#8221;minimal_small&#8221;][toggle color=&#8221;Accent-Color&#8221; heading_tag=&#8221;default&#8221; heading_tag_functionality=&#8221;default&#8221; title=&#8221;Read more&#8221;][vc_column_text]Some of the risk factors that can trigger retinal detachment are family\/personal predisposition to have a weak retina, myopia (high prescriptions) and diabetes (complication associated with advanced diabetic retinopathy).

The appearance of these spots in the vision does not necessarily imply any problem, but if they occur in a striking way, it is of vital importance to have an ophthalmologic evaluation immediately to determine their causes and rule out a possible case of retinal tear or hole in the retina. <\/p>\n<p>As the retinal detachment progresses, the patient will notice flashes of light, distortion of images, as well as a veil or black cloth covering an area of his visual field, limiting his peripheral vision.
