Retina and Retinal Disorders The retina is a layer of tissue present in the interior of your eye.   Retina    disorders   are mainly due to lack of light-delicate cells and other nerve cells which transform the impulse into visual information. Retina sends this visual data to the cerebrum through your optic nerve and process the information into an image and empowering you to see. Different age group generations, races and ethnicities are effected from   Retinal degenerative disorders , for instance,   Age-related macular degeneration   and   myopic macular degeneration .

In Europe the growing demand for eye care services highlight shortage of ophthalmologists

The population of Europe is projected to become older in the coming decades, with an uneven growth rate expected in the various countries. The percentage of the total population age 65 years or older is predicted to increase from 17% in 2008 to 23.5% in 2030. According to the EUREYE study, 3.3% of the European population age 65 years or older has AMD . The prevalence is 40% higher in women than men and rises steeply with age. This indicates approximately 2.5 million AMD cases within the 27 EU nations. Data from the International Diabetes Federation show that there are currently 55 million adults and 112,000 children with diabetes in Europe; 10 million to 12 million more cases are expected by 2030.
