I have been told I may have retinal detachment. Where should I go?
If retinal detachment is suspected or has been diagnosed, it is important to be examined promptly by an eye specialist who can assess the retina thoroughly. When choosing a clinic, check whether retinal surgery and urgent evaluations are available. At First Samsung Eye Clinic near Gangnam Station, Dr. Sung-Jin Na personally provides both the evaluation and surgical treatment of retinal detachment. If you suddenly develop a shadow or curtain in your vision, do not delay care while deciding where to go.
