Symptoms of Retinal Detachment
Reading time: 1 min
La función principal de la retina es la detección de la luz que envía señales al cerebro para poder ver, por lo que cuando se produce un desprendimiento de retina, los síntomas de alarma son:
Destellos luminosos (fotopsias).
Aparición de moscas volantes, manchas, líneas o telarañas en el campo visual (miodesopsias).
Sombra en la visión periférica o cortina gris que cubre parte del campo visual.
Los destellos luminosos o las moscas volantes son comunes en un desprendimiento de vítreo posterior sin desgarro y, por lo tanto, sin desprendimiento de retina. Sin embargo, si aparecen de manera repentina, se recomienda una exploración oftalmológica para descartar un desgarro.
