About this condition

Proliferative sickle-cell retinopathy occurs when abnormal blood vessels grow in the retina of people with sickle cell disease, affecting the left eye. These fragile vessels can bleed or cause scarring, leading to progressive vision loss if untreated. Regular eye examinations and timely treatment with laser therapy can help prevent permanent blindness.
