Expert diagnosis and treatment of all retinal conditions — diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment, macular degeneration and more. Led by Dr. Monika Yadav at Jagdamba Eye Hospital.
The retina is the delicate light-sensitive tissue lining the back of your eye. It converts light into electrical signals that travel via the optic nerve to your brain, creating the images you see. When the retina is damaged, vision becomes distorted, blurred or is lost entirely — sometimes without any warning symptoms in the early stages.
Retina treatment encompasses the diagnosis, monitoring and management of all conditions affecting the retina and vitreous (the gel-filled cavity of the eye). At Jagdamba Eye Hospital in Bhiwadi, Dr. Monika Yadav leads our retina service, performing laser photocoagulation, intravitreal injections and coordinating vitreoretinal surgery where required.
Early detection is critical — many retinal conditions cause permanent vision loss if left untreated, but respond very well to treatment when caught early. If you have diabetes, high blood pressure or a family history of retinal disease, regular retina check-ups are essential.
High blood sugar damages the tiny blood vessels in the retina, causing leakage, swelling and new vessel growth. One of the leading causes of blindness in working-age adults — fully preventable with regular check-ups and timely treatment.
The retina separates from the underlying tissue, cutting off its blood supply. This is a medical emergency. Sudden flashes of light, a shower of floaters or a dark curtain across your vision require immediate attention.
Age-related deterioration of the macula — the central area of the retina responsible for sharp, detailed vision. Causes distorted or missing central vision. Both dry and wet AMD are managed with monitoring and anti-VEGF injections.
Small breaks in the retina that, if untreated, can progress to full detachment. Laser photocoagulation seals the tear quickly and effectively in an outpatient procedure, preventing vision loss.
Fluid accumulation in the macula causing central vision blurring. Common in diabetes and after retinal vein occlusion. Treated with anti-VEGF injections or laser, often achieving significant vision improvement.
Blockage of the retinal vein causes haemorrhage and swelling. Treated with anti-VEGF injections and laser to preserve and restore vision. Often associated with high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
Laser photocoagulation seals leaking blood vessels and prevents further retinal damage.
These symptoms can indicate serious retinal conditions. Do not wait — early treatment prevents permanent vision loss.
A focused laser beam creates small controlled burns that seal leaking blood vessels, destroy abnormal new vessels and weld retinal tears shut. Performed as an outpatient procedure, usually in 1–3 sessions. Particularly effective for diabetic retinopathy, retinal tears and some forms of macular degeneration.
Anti-VEGF drugs (such as Bevacizumab or Ranibizumab) are injected directly into the vitreous cavity of the eye to reduce leakage, swelling and the growth of abnormal blood vessels. Used for wet AMD, diabetic macular oedema and retinal vein occlusion. The injection itself takes less than a minute under topical anaesthesia.
For complex cases — retinal detachment, vitreous haemorrhage or epiretinal membrane — vitreoretinal surgery removes the vitreous gel and addresses the underlying problem. Dr. Monika Yadav coordinates referral for vitrectomy to specialist vitreoretinal surgeons where required.
Many retinal conditions require ongoing monitoring with OCT scans and fundus photography to track disease progression and treatment response. Diabetic patients should have a retinal examination at least once a year, or more frequently if changes are detected.
