How is macular hemorrhage in the fundus treated?
Disease description:
Yesterday, a friend mentioned that my son has bleeding in the macula of his retina. I'd like to know how retinal macular bleeding is treated.
Macular hemorrhage is a very serious retinal condition. Once this occurs, it is essential to promptly go to the hospital to complete relevant examinations. If the amount of bleeding is small, the blood may gradually be absorbed. However, if the hemorrhage is extensive, a proliferative membrane may form on the surface, leading to irreversible vision loss. In such cases, surgery should be performed as soon as possible, typically involving vitrectomy combined with preretinal membrane peeling.
