Posterior vitreous detachment as observed by wide-angle OCT imaging
Ophthalmology Apr 12, 2018
Tsukahara M, et al. - Authors imaged the wide-angle vitreoretinal interface after posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) in normal subjects using montaged OCT images. Findings suggested the first appearance of the PVD even in the third decade of life and gradually appeared more extensively throughout life. An association of more than 40% of eyes without fundus diseases at their PVD initiation with vitreoschisis was noted. As per findings, PVD was first noted primarily in the paramacular-peripheral region where vitreous gel adhered to the retinal surface and was noted to be more extensive in older ages to ultimately involve the fovea.
