What are the symptoms of fundus lesions?
Fundus disease refers to the pathological changes of blood vessels, nerves and other tissues in the eyeball. Fundus lesions can be caused by many reasons, including hypertension, diabetes, glaucoma, etc. The symptoms of fundus diseases will be described in detail in the following four aspects: visual changes, eye discomfort, visual abnormalities, and fundus examination.
1、 Visual changes
Fundus diseases often lead to vision changes, which are manifested as blurred, unclear or gradually declining vision. This is because fundus diseases will damage the retina or macular area, affect the projection and reception of light, and cause visual signals to be unable to be transmitted to the brain normally, thus causing vision loss.
In addition to decreased vision, fundus lesions may also cause visual field defects. The patient may find black spots or blurred areas, resulting in a smaller field of vision and inability to see the surrounding objects clearly. This situation may gradually deteriorate and seriously affect daily life.
In case of vision change, seek medical advice in time to determine the cause and take corresponding treatment measures.
2、 Eye discomfort
Fundus lesions can also cause eye discomfort, including eye pain, redness, blurred vision and other symptoms. Eye pain may be caused by inflammation or damage of retina or other structures caused by fundus diseases. Eye redness may be caused by blood vessel dilation, congestion or bleeding of the eye caused by fundus diseases. Blurred vision may be caused by damage to the retina, macular area and other structures.
Eye discomfort is generally not the main symptom of fundus disease. Most patients know the existence of fundus disease through the discovery of other symptoms. However, eye discomfort is still one of the symptoms that need attention.
3、 Visual abnormality
Visual abnormality is one of the common manifestations of fundus diseases. The patient may have flashes, floaters, dark spots or other visual clutter. These visual abnormalities may be caused by retinal dysfunction or visual signal processing abnormalities caused by fundus diseases.
For example, the patient may see a flashing light spot, which is because the retina is stimulated by fundus diseases, resulting in abnormal transmission of visual signals. Flying mosquito disease refers to the appearance of granular, linear or film objects floating around the eyes, interfering with normal vision. If these visual abnormalities occur, seek medical advice in time for fundus examination.
4、 Fundus examination
The diagnosis of fundus diseases requires fundus examination. Fundus examination is to observe the condition of the fundus through ophthalmoscope, including the changes of retina, macular area, blood vessels and other structures. Fundus examination can help doctors judge the type, degree and location of fundus lesions, so as to determine the corresponding treatment plan.
Fundus examination generally requires professional medical equipment and experienced doctors. The ophthalmic departments of some large hospitals are equipped with advanced fundus examination equipment, such as Dalian Chaoju Eye Hospital, which provides high-quality fundus examination services to help patients accurately diagnose and treat fundus diseases.
Summary
There are various symptoms of fundus diseases, including visual changes, eye discomfort, visual abnormalities and pathological changes found in fundus examinations. Vision changes and eye discomfort are the most common symptoms and should be noticed by patients. Visual abnormality is the discovery of fundus lesions through patients' active perception of visual abnormality. Fundus examination is the main method to diagnose fundus diseases, which can be diagnosed and treated by observing the changes of fundus structure.
In order to find and treat fundus diseases in time, it is recommended that patients should have regular ophthalmic examinations and see a doctor for fundus examinations as soon as possible. Dalian Chaoju Eye Hospital provides professional fundus examination services to help patients accurately diagnose and treat fundus diseases and maintain eye health.
