Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. It occurs when the body is unable to produce enough insulin or efficiently utilize the insulin it produces. This leads to elevated blood sugar levels, which can cause various complications if left unmanaged. One such complication is proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), combined with traction retinal detachment (TRD) and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) in the unspecified eye.
PDR is a severe form of diabetic retinopathy that occurs when abnormal blood vessels grow on the surface of the retina. These vessels are fragile and prone to leaking, leading to swelling and hemorrhages within the eye. Over time, this can cause scarring and the formation of fibrous tissue, which can lead to traction retinal detachment. In addition, rhegmatogenous retinal detachment can occur when a tear or hole forms in the retina, allowing fluid to accumulate between the retina and the underlying tissues.
In conclusion, diabetes mellitus due to an underlying condition can lead to proliferative diabetic retinopathy with combined traction retinal detachment and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in the unspecified eye. Early diagnosis, proper management of diabetes, and regular eye examinations are key
