Arthritis
Cryotherapy
And blindness. Fluid can pass through the tear or hole and then lift the retina off of the back of the eye like wallpaper peeling off a wall. Laser surgery or cryotherapy (freezing) is often used to seal retinal tears and prevent detachment.

Glaucoma
Most people know that high blood pressure and other vascular (blood vessel) diseases pose risks to overall health, but many may not know that high blood pressure can affect vision by damaging the veins in the eye. High blood pressure is the most common condition associated with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). About 10% to 12% of the people who have BRVO also have glaucoma (a disease of the nerve between the eye and the brain).
Ophthalmology
He is the former Chairman of the Department of Ophthalmology at the Paul L. Foster School of Medicine at the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. Prior to his position in Texas he was Chief of the Division of Visual Physiology at the Wilmer Eye Institute of the Johns Hopkins Hospital, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
Macular Degeneration
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of vision loss in people over the age of 50 in the US. It is a disease of the retina. The retina is a layer of light-sensing cells lining the back of your eye. This condition damages a portion of the retina called the macula, which is located in the center of the retina and enables you to see fine details clearly. You rely on your macula whenever you read, drive, or do other activities that require you to focus on fine details. Some people with AMD may lose the ability to perceive fine details both up close and at a distance. The side vision is usually not affected, as AMD usually affects only the central vision.
Cataracts
Be sure to discuss your options with your eye doctor. If surgery is recommended, you should be aware that as with any surgical procedure, rare complications can occur, including infection, bleeding, retinal detachment, recurrence of the epiretinal membrane, and earlier onset of cataract.
Eye Exam
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) describes a group of related diseases that tend to run in families and cause a slow but progressive loss of vision. RP affects the rods and cones of the retina, the light-sensitive nerve layer at the back of the eye. RP usually affects both eyes equally, with severity ranging from no visual problems in some patients to blindness at an early age in others. RP gets its name from the fact that one of the signs is a clumping of the retinal pigment that can be seen during an eye exam in some patients.

He subsequently completed an internal medicine internship at St. Lukeâ€™s-Roosevelt Hospital (affiliate of Columbia University) in New York City, followed by an ophthalmology residency at the University of Chicago, where he served as Chief Resident.

Endocrinology
Following undergraduate at Harvard University, Dr. Rogell earned his medical degree from Harvard Medical School and then completed his residency and fellowship in vitreoretinal surgery at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary of the Harvard Medical School. He received additional research training at the Howe Laboratory of Ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School where he developed his expertise in retinal circulation. He completed a Heed Ophthalmic Fellowship. He also completed an additional fellowship in Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism at the world-renowned Joslin Diabetes Center of the Harvard Medical School.
Diabetic Retinopathy
Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is a complication of diabetes caused by changes in the blood vessels of the back of the eye. If you have diabetes, your body does not use and store sugar properly. High blood sugar levels cause damage to the veins, arteries, and capillaries that carry blood throughout the body. This damage also occurs in the tiny blood vessels in the retina. The retina is the light-sensitive nerve layer that lines the back of the eye.

Fungus
Ocular histoplasmosis syndrome (OHS) is a major cause of visual impairment in the eastern and central United States, where 90% of adults have been exposed to Histoplasma capsulatum. This common fungus is found in molds from soil enriched with bat, chicken, or starling droppings and yeasts from animals.
