Advanced Care for Blockages
Vein and artery occlusions are serious eye conditions that occur when blood flow to or from the retina is interrupted, leading to damage in the delicate retinal tissues. These conditions can cause sudden vision loss or long-term complications if untreated. Accurate diagnosis and timely intervention are crucial for preserving vision in cases of occlusion. Vein and artery occlusions require immediate attention. The sooner treatment begins, the better your chances of preserving and restoring your sight.
