HOMOEOPATHIC REMEDIES FOR RETINOPATHY

-
Retinopathy is persistent or acute damage to the retina  of the eye . On going inflammation and vascular remodeling may occur over periods of time where the patient is not fully aware of the extent of the disease. Frequently, retinopathy is anocular manifestation of systemic diseases as seen in diabetes and hypertension. Diabetic retinopathy  is the leading cause of blindness in working-aged people.
Causes---Causes of retinopathy include but are not limited to:
Diabetes mellitus, which causes diabetic retinopathy
Arterial hypertension, which causes hypertensive retinopathy .
Retinopathy of prematurity due to prematurity of the newborn (under the 9 months of human pregnancy).
Radiation retinopathy due to exposure to ionizing radiation.
Solar retinopathy due to direct sunlight exposure.
Sickle cell disease
Retinal vascular disease such as retinal vein or artery occlusion.
Trauma, especially to the head, and several diseases may causePurtscher’s retinopathy 
Hyperviscosity-related retinopathy as seen in disorders which cause paraproteinemia
Many types of retinopathy are proliferative, most often resulting from neovascularization  or blood vessel overgrowth. Angiogenesis  is the hallmark precursor that may result in  blindness or severe vision loss, particularly if the macula  becomes affected.
Retinopathy may more rarely be due to ciliopathic genetic disorders such as Alstrom syndrome or Bardet – Biedl syndrome 
Retinopathy is diagnosed by an opthalmologist   during eye examination. Treatment depends on the cause of the disease.

De Quervain's tenosynovitis  is a painful condition affecting the tendons on the thumb side of your wrist.

Although the exact cause of de Quervain's tenosynovitis isn't known, any activity that relies on repetitive hand or wrist movement — such as working in the garden, playing golf or racket sports, or lifting your baby — can make it worse.
