Retina Disease Treatment
Specialist evaluation and treatment planning for back-of-eye diseases.
Retina diseases can affect central vision, side vision, reading ability and daily life. Early diagnosis is important because many retinal conditions may progress before vision loss becomes severe.
Overview
The retina is the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye. It helps convert light into visual signals, making it essential for clear and functional vision. Retina problems may develop due to diabetes, aging, high myopia, inflammation, trauma, blood vessel disease or other eye conditions.
Dr. Md. Mominul Islam provides specialist evaluation and treatment planning for retinal diseases, including diabetic retinopathy, macular disease, retinal detachment, vitreous bleeding, retinal vascular problems and sudden vision changes. His care focuses on accurate diagnosis, risk assessment and timely management.
Key Symptoms
- Sudden blurred vision
- Floaters or black spots
- Flashes of light
- Distorted central vision
- Dark shadow in vision

Diagnosis & Evaluation
Diagnosis usually begins with visual acuity testing, slit-lamp examination and dilated retina evaluation. Depending on the condition, OCT, fundus photography, fluorescein angiography, ultrasound or other retina-related tests may be advised.
A proper retina diagnosis helps identify the affected area, disease severity, progression risk and the most suitable care plan. In some cases, urgent evaluation is needed to prevent further visual damage.
Treatment & Care Options
Treatment may include observation, medicine, retinal laser, intravitreal injections, vitreo-retinal surgery or long-term monitoring depending on the disease type and severity.
