The invention provides solutions to the problem connected with detached eye retinas and to methods that can promote the healing of the repaired retina. Instead of injecting gas bubbles or silicone oil into the eyeball, the invention proposes to inject magnetic particles inside the eye and use external magnets to urge the magnetic particles to move against the repaired area of the retina, thus forcing the retina against the eyeball walls, thus promoting the healing. Optional eye movement sensors can optimize the distribution of the magnetic particles, to optimize the force holding the retina in place, thus optimizing the healing benefits of using the proposed system. The magnetic particles can be bio-inert and/or degradable. Other helpful devices are proposed as well to reduce the stresses on the patient's neck muscles in case he/she still needs to hold the head in a certain position for a long period of time.
