Retinal Detachment

Trauma from a car accident or other impact can cause retinal detachment, which is a condition where the retina pulls away from the attached blood vessels. Since the blood vessels provide oxygen and nutrients to the eye, the condition can cause permanent vision loss if left untreated. Classic signs of retinal detachment include a shadow or curtain in the field of vision, the sudden appearance of floaters in the field of vision, and sudden flashes of light in one or both eyes. If you have sustained a retinal detachment injury, surgery can often repair the condition. However, even with surgery, normal vision may not be restored. The outcome is dependent upon the level of detachment and how long the detachment remained untreated. Even with a successful surgery, it can take months for normal vision to be restored.

The physical, emotional and financial impact of lost or diminished vision cannot be overstated. The injury can affect so many aspects of daily life: the ability to drive, to go to work, to read a book and so much more. The medical bills associated with caring for the injury can be substantial and, when you are out of work due to your injury, your financial situation can become perilous quickly. Emotionally, it can be difficult coping with the lost or diminished eyesight and the loss of independence associated with it.
