Retinopathy refers to damage to the blood vessels in the retina, the part of the eye that is responsible for vision. Retinopathy can have a number of causes, including diabetes, high blood pressure, and other medical conditions. Untreated retinopathy can lead to vision loss and blindness, and early detection and treatment are important in managing the condition. Treatment for retinopathy may include lifestyle changes like managing blood sugar and blood pressure levels, as well as medication or surgical interventions.
