The 19 pages that link to Retinal detachment, each with the reason it gives.

• RetinaRelated: Separation disrupts photoreceptor support and can threaten sight.

• Optic nerveCompared with: It disrupts vision at the retina, unlike damage to the nerve carrying its output.

• Age-related macular degenerationCompared with: It is an urgent structural disorder rather than a gradual macular degeneration.

• MyopiaRelated: Myopia, especially high myopia, increases the risk of retinal tears and detachment.

• OphthalmologyRelated: Recognizing and repairing it promptly can preserve sight.

• UveitisRelated: Severe posterior inflammation can contribute to retinal breaks or traction that threaten sight.

• Visual field testRelated: A field defect may help document functional loss from retinal damage.

• OphthalmoscopyBroader topic: A dilated retinal examination can locate a detachment and identify associated tears.

• Optic neuritisCompared with: It causes vision loss through retinal injury rather than optic-nerve inflammation.

• Cataract surgeryRelated: Cataract surgery is associated with a small increased risk, especially in certain eyes.

• Retinopathy of prematurityBroader topic: Fibrovascular tissue in advanced ROP can pull the retina away from its supporting layers.

• Visual impairmentRelated: It is an urgent cause of impairment whose outcome depends on prompt treatment.

• Ectopia lentisRelated: It is a sight-threatening complication requiring attention in eyes with lens displacement, especially after trauma.

• ColobomaRelated: Chorioretinal coloboma can increase detachment risk at the defect's margins.

• Albrecht von GraefeRelated: Graefe’s clinical descriptions helped distinguish retinal detachment as a specific disease.

• Blurred visionRelated: A sudden shadow, flashes, or floaters with vision change may indicate detachment.

• AphakiaRelated: Severe trauma causing aphakia may also injure the retina, making visual prognosis depend on more than refraction.

• Eye diseasesBroader topic: This structural emergency can cause sudden flashes, floaters, or a curtain-like loss of sight.

• Stickler syndromeRelated: Vitreous abnormalities in Stickler syndrome raise the risk of retinal tears and detachment.
