Retinal detachment
Retinal detachment occurs when the thin lining at the back of your eye called the retina begins to pull away from the blood vessels that supply it with oxygen and nutrients.
The most common cause of retinal detachment is tiny breaks developing inside the retina.
If retinal detachment has occurred, surgery is usually required to reattach the retina.
After the operation, your eyelids may feel itchy and sticky, and some fluid may leak from your eye.
