Hi
Welcome to Health care magic
Retinal detachment will not cause headache. However the associated inflammation associated with retinal detachment can cause headache. Hence this requires examination to find the underlying associated inflammation and treatment.
The specific treatment for retinal detachment is mainly by surgery. More delay in surgery will lead to failure of surgery, hence she needs to undergo surgery at the earliest.
