tongue/roof of mouth feel cold. for the past week part of my tongue and part of the roof of my mouth have constantly felt cold, at times like a cold burning sensation and it really bothers me :( there's no pain or change in color in the area and it's not my entire tongue or roof of my mouth, it's just sort of in the middle.
Listen. The retina is the light-sensitive layer of tissue that lines the inside of the eye and sends visual messages through the optic nerve to the brain. When the retina detaches, it is lifted or pulled from its normal position. If not promptly treated, retinal detachment can cause permanent vision loss.
Occasionally a retinal buckle can be placed around the globe to insure better fixation of the wounded retina to the outer coats of the eye. So you can see that early diagnosis of flashes and floaters is imperative so that a retinal tear or detachment can be ruled out or identified. Epi-Retinal Membrane Degeneration of the vitreous body, perhaps due to long term solar exposure, can lead to unusual events. One such item is the development of a fibrous membrane over the macula (the center of the retina), which causes distortion of vision. Other names for it are cellophane maculopathy and retinal wrinkling.
