  2. Retinal detachment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retinal_detachment

    [2] [9] [22] Additionally, freezing (cryotherapy) or lasers are used to seal the retinal tears and prevent further detachment. [9] [10] [22] Following the procedure, patients are advised to maintain a specific head position to ensure the gas bubble remains in place over the tear and to facilitate proper healing.

  3. Posterior vitreous detachment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_vitreous_detachment

    The risk of retinal detachment is the greatest in the first 6 weeks following a vitreous detachment, but can occur over 3 months after the event.. The risk of retinal tears and detachment associated with vitreous detachment is higher in patients with myopic retinal degeneration, lattice degeneration, and a familial or personal history of previous retinal tears/detachment.

  4. Vitreous hemorrhage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitreous_hemorrhage

    A tear in the retina can allow fluids from the eye to leak in behind the retina, which causes retinal detachment. When this occurs, blood from the retinal blood vessels can bleed into the vitreous. [4] Retinal tear accounts for 11.4–44% of vitreous hemorrhage cases. [1]

  5. Retinal haemorrhage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retinal_haemorrhage

    Retinal hemorrhage (UK English: retinal haemorrhage) is a disorder of the eye in which bleeding occurs in the retina, the light sensitive tissue located on the back wall of the eye. [1] There are photoreceptor cells in the retina called rods and cones , which transduce light energy into nerve signals that can be processed by the brain to form ...

  6. Eye injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_injury

    Multiple complications are known to occur following eye injury: corneal scarring, hyphema, iridodialysis, post-traumatic glaucoma, uveitis cataract, vitreous hemorrhage and retinal detachment. The complications risk is high with retinal tears, penetrating injuries and severe blunt trauma.

  7. Vitreomacular adhesion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitreomacular_adhesion

    The pulling forces or traction from this adhesion on the retinal surface can sometimes cause edema within the retina, damage to retinal blood vessels causing bleeding, or damage to the optic nerve causing disruption in the nerve signals sent to the brain for visual processing. It is important to note that while the VMA itself is not dangerous ...

  8. Retinal regeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retinal_regeneration

    Retinal regeneration in zebrafish is mediated by Muller glia, which dedifferentiate into stem-like cells and proliferate into neural progenitor cells in response to retinal damage. While Muller glia division is responsible for the regeneration of the retina in all cases of retinal damage, the case of photoreceptor loss due to light damage is ...

  9. Intraocular hemorrhage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraocular_hemorrhage

    Intraocular hemorrhage (sometimes called hemophthalmos or hemophthalmia) is bleeding inside the eye (oculus in Latin).Bleeding can occur from any structure of the eye where there is vasculature or blood flow, including the anterior chamber, vitreous cavity, retina, choroid, suprachoroidal space, or optic disc.
