Essential knowledge
What is the retina?
The retina is the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye. It converts light into signals that travel to the brain through the optic nerve, allowing you to see.
Some retinal damage can be permanent. Early evaluation and timely treatment can help protect the vision that remains.
What retina care involves
Retina care focuses on diagnosing and managing conditions affecting the retina, macula and blood vessels at the back of the eye.

Retina evaluation guide
When should you consider a retina evaluation?
Retinal conditions can progress without pain. New or unusual changes in vision should be assessed early, particularly if you have diabetes or other risk factors.
01Blurred or distorted vision
Straight lines may appear wavy, bent or uneven, and central detail may look blurred.
Clinical next step: comprehensive retinal assessment02New floaters or dark spots
A sudden increase in specks, threads or shadow-like shapes moving across your sight needs prompt attention.
03Difficulty seeing in low light
Adjusting between bright and dim surroundings may become slower or less comfortable.
04Reduced side vision
Dark, blurred or missing areas may appear toward the outer part of your visual field.
05Flashes of light
Brief streaks, sparks or camera-flash sensations can occur when the retina is being pulled or irritated.
06A dark curtain or grey veil
A shadow spreading across part of your vision is urgent and requires immediate eye assessment.

Our retina care & treatment options
From detailed retinal imaging to diabetic eye care, laser treatment and vitreoretinal surgery, every plan is based on your diagnosis and eye health.
Retinal Assessment & Imaging
A dilated retinal examination with OCT scans and fundus photography helps detect, stage and document conditions affecting the retina and macula.
- Dilated retinal examination
- OCT and fundus imaging
- Baseline for future comparison
Diabetic Retinopathy Care
Regular screening for people with diabetes finds retinal changes early, so monitoring or treatment can begin before vision is seriously affected.
- Regular diabetic eye screening
- Staging of retinal changes
- Coordinated follow-up plan
Laser Photocoagulation
Where suitable, laser treatment helps seal leaking blood vessels and treat abnormal areas of the retina to reduce the risk of further vision loss.
- Performed with numbing drops
- Planned after detailed imaging
- Response reviewed at follow-up
Vitreoretinal Surgery
Complex retinal and vitreoretinal surgeries are performed by our retina specialist when surgery is the most suitable option.
- Specialist surgical assessment
- Benefits and risks explained
- Close post-operative follow-up
Treatment choice depends on your diagnosis, the stage of the condition and your overall eye health. Some vision loss cannot be reversed; treatment aims to protect the sight you have.
Benefits of early retina care
Many retinal conditions develop without early symptoms. Regular checks and timely treatment aim to protect your vision for the years ahead.
Clear understanding of your condition
Scan results are explained clearly so you understand your retina health and the reasons for treatment.
Earlier detection
Retinal imaging can reveal changes before you notice any difference in your vision.
Protecting central vision
Timely care for the macula aims to preserve the sharp central vision used for reading and recognising faces.
Results vary with the condition, its stage at diagnosis and how consistently treatment and follow-up are maintained. Your doctor will discuss realistic expectations with you.

Helpful guidance about retina checks, diabetic eye screening, warning signs, laser treatment and what to expect from your visit.
Most people with diabetes should have a retinal examination at least once a year, even if their vision seems normal. Your doctor may advise more frequent checks if diabetic retinopathy or other changes are found.
A sudden increase in floaters, flashes of light, or a shadow or curtain across your vision can be a sign of a retinal tear or detachment. Please contact us or seek an eye examination urgently.
A retina examination usually includes dilating eye drops, a detailed examination of the back of the eye, and imaging such as OCT scans and fundus photography. Your doctor will explain which tests are needed for you.
Dilating drops can blur your vision and make you sensitive to light for a few hours. We recommend bringing someone with you or arranging transport, and carrying sunglasses for the journey home.
Laser treatment is usually performed with numbing eye drops. Some people feel mild discomfort or brief stinging during treatment. Your doctor will explain what to expect before the procedure.
It depends on the condition and how early it is treated. Some vision loss cannot be reversed, which is why early detection and timely treatment are important to protect the sight you have.
Complex retinal and vitreoretinal surgeries are performed by our retina specialist. Your doctor will discuss whether surgery is recommended and explain the benefits, risks and recovery.
