Retinal diseases are an emerging cause of visual impairment in the developing world. Population-based studies have reported that the prevalence of retinal disorders ranges from 5.35% to 21.02% at age 40 years and above. In the developing world, retinal diseases are the second most common cause of blindness after cataract. Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of irreversible blindness among the elderly age group, and diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common cause of blindness among the working age group in developed countries.
Therefore, a thorough understanding of the diagnosis, and treatment is the need of the hour. Also, the diagnostic criteria and treatment of retinal diseases varies from doctor to doctor and depends upon the availability of these diagnostic and treatment modalities. Hence it is important to understand the diagnostic tests used and the treatment prescribed in patients of retinal eye disease.
