Retinal detachment/ preventative

2017-05-16 10:01:05
My dad (65) suffered a retinal detachment in one of his eye 3 years back and treatment could not recover his sight on that eye. His one good eye is now growing weaker. He has had cataract surgery few years back prior to the retinal detachment.Kindly suggest a good treatment plan (good affordable eye center/hospital in delhi) and the steps required to help his good eye to stay healthier.

Your father has only one eye & he must be cautious because he has already lost one eye due to retinal detachment ,if you are financially not well off , you may go for yearly check up at guru nanak eye center.
