Retinal hemorrhage is a common ophthalmic emergency that may be caused by various factors, including diabetic retinopathy, hypertensive retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, retinal tears, or detachment.
Treating the underlying conditions that cause retinal hemorrhage is the primary step. For example, in cases of hemorrhage caused by diabetic retinopathy, controlling blood glucose levels is essential; for hypertensive retinopathy, active blood pressure management is necessary.
In diabetic retinopathy and other appropriate cases, laser photocoagulation can seal abnormal blood vessels, reduce bleeding and swelling, and prevent further progression of the disease. Regarding medication, patients may use Yunnan Baiyao Capsules, Anluoxue Tablets, Compound Earthworm Tablets, or Hemocoagulase for Injection under a doctor's guidance. These medications can help alleviate symptoms and promote the absorption of hemorrhagic products.
For severe retinal detachment or vitreous hemorrhage, vitrectomy may be required to remove accumulated blood and repair the retina. Regardless of the treatment method used, regular ophthalmic examinations are important to monitor disease progression and adjust treatment plans promptly.
