What is Age related Macular Degeneration?
Now treatable at our centre
Importance of Retinal Surgries.
Retina is made up of neuronal tissues, whose damage is many a times irreversible and can cause blindness. Surgical conditions like retina Detachment ,Vitreous Infections Macularhole and many such conditions warrant emergency surgical treatment which require class setup & class surgeons to give satisfactory results;and our setup provides either of them.
Diabetic Retinopathy
India is capital of Diabetics. The patients who have Diabetes, even having good Blood Sugar Control can have Diabetic Retinopathy as this condition is duration dependent. Since India has the largest population of diabetics in the world, Diabetes Related Blindness is spreading like epidemics which need focused screening and prompt treatment. Our centre can afford to boast as one of the pioneer & Most Advanced centres of this region for Diabetic Retinopathy Managment either through medical or surgical treatment.
What is Age related Macular Degeneration?
Age-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD or AMD) is a disease of ageing that causes progressive degeneration or breakdown of cells of macula which is central retina and is responsible for quality vision. Macular degeneration with aging if wet type,can be diagnosed by FF Angiography OCT etc & can be treated through Injections & Lasers. Our Centre is capable of managing all types of treatable ARMD.

1.Initial Stages Of Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetes is a leading cause of blindness in the world. It may lead to frequent fluctuations, floater and spots in your vision; pain pressure or constant redness of the eye, cataract in young age etc. The most significant complication of Diabetes in eyes is Diabetic Retinopathy. Treatment options for Diabetic Retinopathy include Laser Photocoagulation, Intravitreal injections and Vitrectomy. Equipped with the latest technology and vast diagnostic and surgical experience, the Retina Department of Excellence at CSN Netralaya Pvt Ltd. offers all-inclusive medical and surgical management of even the most complex vitreo-retinal diseases with best possible outcomes. Diabetes is a metabolic disorder which interferes with body’s ability to use and store sugar. It usually affects adults in their late forties or fifties. However, these days owing to lifestyle changes even young people can get diabetes. The classic symptoms of diabetes are increased thirst, frequent urination, weight loss, tiredness or blurred vision. Uncontrolled diabetes can affect eyes, nerves and kidneys. Individuals with diabetes are more likely to develop cataracts at a younger age and are twice as likely to develop glaucoma as are non-diabetics. However, the primary vision problem caused by diabetes is Diabetic Retinopathy which damages the blood vessels of the retina. In uncontrolled diabetes, high sugar in the blood can damage blood vessels of the eye. As damage progresses, they begin to leak which results in accumulation of the fluid in the central part of the retina. This deterioration of the blood vessels causes hindrance in supply of oxygen and nutrients needed by retina to stay healthy. The spectrum of services provided by CSN Netralaya Pvt Ltd. includes retina care with advanced vitreoretinal surgeries, retinal detachment treatment, Diabetic Retinopathy management, laser retina treatment and anti-VEGF intravitreal injections.
Warning Symptoms:
• Blurred, double, or distorted vision or difficulty reading.
• Floaters or spots in your vision.
• Partial or total loss of vision or a shadow or veil across your field of vision.
• Pain, pressure, or constant redness of the eye.
All diabetics are at risk of getting Diabetic Retinopathy. The risk multiplies the longer a person lives with diabetes. It has been observed that about 80% of long standing diabetics (15 years or more of diabetes) have some damage in the blood vessels of retina. Diabetic retinopathy can occur at a young age in juvenile diabetics. Diabetic retinopathy is a silent vision stealer. In early stage, there is hardly any symptom. Hence, a diabetic must strictly get his eye exam done every year. If detected early, vision loss can be prevented. But, once the damage is done, the effects are irreversible. The ophthalmologist will do a comprehensive eye investigation to detect Diabetic Retinopathy. The eye exam includes visual acuity tests, eye pressure measurements and direct visualization of the retina with an ophthalmoscope. Sometimes the ophthalmologist may require more extensive imaging with technology like Fundus Fluorescein Angiography (FFA) and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) to capture the details of the damage caused by abnormal blood vessels & assess the severity of the condition.
Diabetic Retinopathy Treatment Laser Photocoagulation:
It is the most common line of action for Diabetic retinopathy treatment. But remember, this can only save the existing sight level and cannot make it better. In laser treatment, the retina specialist uses laser to destroy areas of retina deprived of oxygen which helps to prevent growth of new blood vessels into these areas. It can be done in multiple sessions. In most cases, this procedure causes the new blood vessels to regress and swelling to subside. It usually takes three to four months to be fully effective.
Intravitreal Injections:
These help patients with gross swelling in the macula. It may require injections into the eye of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor drug or steroid to reduce the growth of abnormal blood vessels and leakage of fluid from them. These may also be used prior to surgery to reduce the bleeding. The choice of treatment depends on the stage of the disease, the age of the patient and the recommendations of the retina specialist. With specialist retina panel and advanced technology in the field, C.S.N EYE CENTRE(P) Ltd. is a destination for diabetic retinopathy treatment in India.
Advance Stage Of Diabetic Retinopathy May Require Surgries Like Vitrectomy:
Sometimes the new blood vessels bleed into the gel like centre (vitreous) of the eye. This condition – Vitreous hemorrhage can lead to a sudden loss of vision. If the vitreous hemorrhage is persistent then a procedure called Vitrectomy is recommended. This is a microsurgical procedure for diabetic retinopathy treatment which removes the blood and scar tissue from the centre of the eye. Many patients have improved vision after vitrectomy.
2.Age Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD)
Preserve your sight for the best years of your life
Age-related macular degeneration (ARMD or AMD) is a disease that causes progressive deterioration or breakdown of the eye’s macula. The macula is that part of the retina which is responsible for your central vision, allowing you to see fine details clearly. Macular degeneration is a part of body’s natural ageing process. It is quite common after the age of 65 years.
Treatment may slow down or prevent progressive loss of vision but may not bring the lost vision back. ARMD treatment plan includes Laser therapy & PDT, Anti–VEGF injections, Combination Therapy and Low Vision Aids.
At C.S.N EYE CENTRE(P) Ltd., we house the best infrastructure and state-of-the-art medical equipment with a pool of experienced Retina specialists so that you can be assured that you are in the best hands.
