Retina Specialist Care in Singapore
Flashes and floaters may signal retinal problems
Retina Specialist Care and Treatment in Singapore
Retinal treatments in Singapore focus on diagnosing and managing conditions that affect the retina, the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye responsible for vision. Retinal diseases can lead to blurred vision, distortion or permanent vision loss if not treated early.
At Eagle Eye Centre, our retina specialists provide assessment and treatment for a range of retinal conditions using diagnostic imaging and evidence-based care.
What are retinal conditions?
Retinal conditions are diseases that affect the retina and may cause vision changes or vision loss if untreated.
These conditions can affect central vision, which is used for reading and recognising faces, or peripheral vision. Early detection and treatment are important to preserve long term vision.
Common Retinal Conditions
Retinal treatments may be required for conditions such as:
Retinal detachment
Retina separates suddenly
Diabetic retinopathy
Retina damaged by diabetes
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD)
Central vision degeneration
Retinal vein occlusion
Blocked retinal vein
Macular oedema
Macula fuild swelling
Retinal tears
Retina tear formation
Common Retinal Conditions
Symptoms of Retinal Problems
Retinal conditions may present with a range of symptoms, including:
- Blurred or distorted vision
- Sudden floaters (black spots or cobweb-like shapes)
- Flashes of light
- A shadow or curtain over vision
- Sudden vision loss
Some retinal diseases develop gradually without early symptoms, which is why regular eye screening is important.
Diagnosis and treatment of retinal conditions
A retina specialist will perform a detailed eye examination to assess the retina and determine the cause of symptoms.
Treatment depends on the type of retinal condition, severity and underlying cause.
How retinal conditions are diagnosed
This may include:
- Dilated retinal examination
- Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)
- Retinal photography or imaging
These tests allow early detection of retinal disease and guide treatment planning.

Don't overlook changes in your vision
WHAT YOU SEE MATTERS
Subtle or sudden visual changes can sometimes signal a retinal problem that requires medical attention. While not every symptom is serious, timely evaluation provides clarity and allows appropriate treatment if needed. If your vision feels different from normal, it is worth having it assessed by an eye specialist.
