These types of retinal detachments are known as rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.

Most of the time, injuries are not the reason for tearing or breaking of the retina. These happen when the vitreous gel pulls loose or separates from its attachment to the retina, usually in the peripheral parts of the retina. Vitreous is a clear substance that fills the inside of the eye and occupies the space in front of the retina. If the vitreous gets loose, the forcing pressure will be less and in weak retinas, the tearing may happen. Blunt traumas, diabetes, family history, and... are the most important risk factors of the weak retina. Early diagnosis can prevent complete vision loss. Flashing lights (photopsias) and floaters (floating spots in the vision) are the most common signs of retina detachment or tear. Shadow or curtain are signs which increase the probable possibility of retinal tearing.

In these cases, you may need eye retina surgery. Although nowadays laser therapy is the most suggested method for retinal holes or tears and this is called photocoagulation, the other treatment option is cryotherapy that freezes the retina in order to prevent retinal detachment progress. Not all holes require treatment, and many factors determine which holes or tears need treatment and you can ask your doctor in the same situations.

6. Cosmetic eye surgeries : The most common type is eyes lift : It's a way to change your eye shape it can be done by two methods, a non-invasive option and an invasive (surgical) option. Non-invasive embrace the injection of fillers and fat at the outer edge to elevate the brow. This process can last up to two years. The surgical options last for more years and help reshaping the eye form.

Plastic surgery that involves the eyes, and it involves removing excess skin or fat to rejuvenate or correct the shape of the eyes is commonly named as Blepharoplasty (used for drooping eyelids). European women with Anglo-Saxon heritage have skin loses collagen earlier than others, therefore the filler option is not suitable and profitable. Surgical options tend to be the best way for improving eye shape. As same as all surgeries, these procedures come with potential risks and their own complications. Big complications associated with filler in the orbital region are lumpiness, prolonged swelling and delayed swelling. Stretching the skin can cause the festoons situation and that's very hard to be treated.
