  2. Vitreous body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitreous_body

    The vitreous body at birth is homogenous with a finely striated pattern. With early aging the vitreous develops narrow transvitreal "channels". The cortex is denser than the centre with development. From adolescence, vitreous tracts form from anterior to posterior. These vitreous tracts are fine sheet-like condensations of vitreous. Named tracts

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_vitreous_detachment

    The membrane does not normally detach from the vitreous base, although it can be detached with extreme trauma. However, the vitreous base may have an irregular posterior edge. When the edge is irregular, the forces of the vitreous membrane peeling off the retina can become concentrated at small posterior extensions of the vitreous base.

    The vitreous membrane (or hyaloid membrane or vitreous cortex) is a layer of collagen separating the vitreous humour from the rest of the eye. At least two parts have been identified anatomically. The posterior hyaloid membrane separates the rear of the vitreous from the retina. It is a false anatomical membrane. [1]

    Hyalocytes, also known as vitreous cells, are cells of the vitreous body, which is the clear gel that fills the space between the lens and the retina of the eye. Hyalocytes occur in the peripheral part of the vitreous body, and may produce hyaluronic acid and collagen fibrils , [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Hyalocytes are star-shaped (stellate) cells with oval ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retinal_tuft

    Long term vitreous traction (stretching) of the retina is thought to be what is associated with the increased risk of tears to the retina or retinal detachment. [1] Under a microscope looking at the histology of a cystic retinal tuft, an increase in glial cells , breaking down of the outer retina, and a loss in photoreceptor cells is often ...

    Others may be "coagula of the proteins of the vitreous gel, to embryonic remnants, or the condensation round the walls of Cloquet's canal" that exist in pockets of liquid within the vitreous. The first two sort of floaters may collect over the fovea (the center of vision), and therefore be more visible, when a person is lying on his or her back ...
