Retina and Vitreous Pathology

Retina and vitreous pathology refers to various medical conditions affecting the eye's internal structures. The retina is the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye, crucial for vision, while the vitreous is the gel-like substance filling the eye. Common issues include retinal detachment, where the retina peels away, and floaters in the vitreous, which may cause disturbances in vision. Conditions like diabetic retinopathy involve damage to the retina due to diabetes. Timely diagnosis and treatment are vital to prevent vision loss and maintain eye health.
