It is injured about as easily as any other organ in the body. You just have to be careful. You should wear sports goggles with polycarbonate lenses while playing Racquetball or certain other sports. You may also need eye protection if you work with machines, chemicals, or tools at work or home.

Can you tear a retina by lifting weights?

Yes. If the weights are really heavy, exerting yourself that much can detach your retina. Not only weights, any kind of extreme exertion can put enough pressure on the retina to detach it. It isn't that common, though. And in most cases a detached retina can be re-attached.

Is there a scientific word for detached retina?

"Retinal detachment" is the usual medical term. The condition is most commonly due to a tear in the retina especially in people who are short sighted (myopic). This is a technically a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. The rip allows fluid from the vitreous cavity to pass beneath the retina so the retina progressively separates from the retinal pigment epithelium beneath. Ultimately the entire retina can detach called a total detachment. This is sometimes also called a "funnel detachment" because the retina remains attached to the optic nerve at the back of the eye. There are other types such as "tractional retinal detachment" in patients with severe diabetic eye disease or "exudative detachments" due to inflammatory conditions.
