Macular Holes

Epiretinal membrane can also be called macular pucker, pre-retinal membrane, cellophane maculopathy, surface wrinkling retinopathy and pre-macular fibrosis. An epiretinal membrane results from a build up of scar tissue on the surface of the macula. As this membrane thickens, it causes the macula to become swollen and wrinkled resulting in blurred vision and distortion of...
Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy occurs when the tiny blood vessels nourishing the retina (the light-sensitive tissue inside the eye) are damaged. These vessels can then bleed and leak fluid causing the retina to swell. As with macular degeneration and vein occlusions, swelling of the retina damages the function of the vision cells thus causing vision to deteriorate....

If left untreated, it can lead to permanent blindness. There are two forms of vein occlusion depending upon the location of the blockage. Central Retinal Vein Occlusion...
