    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.

    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]

The vitreous membrane is more firmly attached to the retina anteriorly at the vitreous base. The vitreous membrane does not normally detach from the vitreous base, although it can ...
