The retina is a very thin, light-sensitive layer of nerves located at the back of our eye.

It detects light entering the eye, sends visual signals to the brain, and enables us to perceive the world in its colors.
Therefore, the foundation of clear and vivid vision is a healthy retina.

Even the slightest damage to the retina can noticeably affect vision — sometimes gradually, sometimes suddenly.
Therefore, early detection and correct treatment of retinal diseases are extremely important.

Warning signs of retinal diseases

Decreased visual acuity

Images appearing curved, wavy, or blurry

Noticing flashes of light, shadows, or black spots

Short-term vision loss

Small objects floating in front of the eyes (floaters)

If you have even one of these symptoms, a thorough eye examination is necessary without delay.
Because early diagnosis is the most effective way to prevent permanent vision loss in retinal diseases.

Retinal Diseases We Treat

Dr. Mehmet Fatih Karadağ has many years of experience in the diagnosis and treatment of retinal diseases.
The main retinal diseases that are treated are:

• Diabetic retinopathy and diabetes-related macular edema

• Retinal hemorrhages due to high blood pressure

• Vascular occlusions and intraocular hemorrhages

• Retinal tears and retinal detachment

• Age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

• Macular hole and epiretinal membranes

• Congenital retinal disorders

• Retinal edema and tumors

• Advanced technology and personalized approaches in diagnosis and treatment.

• 
  High-resolution imaging techniques are used for accurate diagnosis of retinal diseases.

• Devices like OCT (optical coherence tomography) and fluorescence angiography allow us to image the internal structure of your eye with sub-millimeter precision.

Based on this data, a personalized treatment plan is created.

Treatment can be planned as injections, laser application, or microsurgery (vitrectomy).

The goal is not just to stop the disease — but to maximize the quality of vision.

Let's not forget

Retinal diseases can often be successfully controlled if detected in time.
Even the smallest change in the eye can make a big difference with early intervention.
Remember: to see is to rediscover all the colors of life.
