Retinal detachment is a serious eye condition that is often associated with poorly controlled diabetes, injury, or inflammatory disorders of the eye. Retinal detachment occurs when the retinal layer (the cells that line the back of the eye) pulls away from the supporting tissue that provides it with oxygen and nourishment. Dr. Sean C. Lalin, a highly trained retinal specialist, provides advanced retinal detachment treatment at our Morristown practice serving Phillipsburg and Hackettstown. If you are experiencing retinal detachment symptoms, which include flashes of light at the outer edge of your vision, or a shadowy image moving from your peripheral to central field of vision, it is extremely important to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
