Symptoms of retinal disease include:

• 1) Floating and flashing in the eyes.

There is no uniform cause of retinal diseases.

• 1) An individual can inherit some conditions such as Usher syndrome, Stargardt disease and retinitis pigmentosa.
• 2) Other types of retinal damage (retinopathy) can occur in other conditions. Diabetes and high blood pressure can damage blood vessels and damage the retina. Inflammation can also cause damage.
• 3) Eye injuries can damage the retina and macula. Macular pucker sometimes appear after eye surgery.
• 4) Some types of retinal damage, such as cytomegalovirus retinitis, occur after an infection. However, retinal disease itself is not infectious
