In this episode of The Eye-Q Podcast, I speak with Dr. Ashish Markan about the urgent warning signs behind floaters, flashes, retinal tears, and retinal detachment. We break down what's normal, what's dangerous, why timing matters, and how treatments like laser repair, gas bubbles, and vitrectomy can preserve vision. This is a must-listen for anyone who's ever wondered whether their symptoms are a true retinal emergency.
