[edit] Comment
This link "A diary of retinal detachment" was removed from the main article because it points to a personal webpage. The webpage documents the recovery of a gentleman who had surgery to fix a detached retina. The site contains photos that simulate what his vision what like before and after the surgery, a series of photos of his eye during the healing process, and a postoperative diary. The information was very useful to my family as my sister just had to have emergency surgery for this condition. (Untreated, this condition can very quickly lead to blindness.) I believe that the information could be useful to other wikipedians as well, so I propose that we at least keep the link here in the discussion page.

Untreated, it's fatal? Do you have some documentation on this? Joyous 00:35, Sep 16, 2004 (UTC)

The language is quite technical in places - we could use some links or re-writing to explain in easier English what some of the medical terms mean. The infobox is baffling - what does it do? --Wtshymanski 18:51, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
