Sometime before my vision changed I was experiencing flashing lights in front of my eyes. Also I had a feeling of a curtain that covers my vim. Last week I visited my doctor. He told me that all this symptoms are from retinal detachment and that it had to be cured. What is a retinal detachment and how can it be cured?

Retinal detachment starts with a hole, flat or tears in the peripheral retina. This happens to a people with a history of myopia trauma etc. Retinal detachment cures surgically. Doctors usually provoke an inflammation in retina in order to get it back on its place. Also it is done to prevent more vision defects. Laser is the most common technique to cure this condition.
