Retinal retention is when an image that enters the eye is still being processed and another image enters the eye so the brain merges the two images. This happens when you move a slide of pictures very fast. This is what some computer animates are; a group of fast moving pictures.

What is the success rate for retinal reattachment?

The success rate for retinal reattachment surgery is about 85-90%. However, the success rate may vary depending on the severity and underlying cause of the retinal detachment. It is important to discuss your specific situation and prognosis with your eye doctor.


Do the axons of retinal ganglion cells form the optic nerve?

Yes. The Retinal Ganglion Cell axons form the optic nerve.


What are the causes of retina bleeding?

Retinal bleeding can be caused by conditions such as diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, retinal vein occlusion, and high blood pressure. Trauma to the eye or certain systemic diseases like sickle cell anemia can also lead to retinal bleeding. It is important to seek prompt medical attention if you experience any symptoms of retinal bleeding.


What deterioration of the retina called?

Retinal deterioration is often referred to as retinal degeneration. This condition occurs when the cells in the retina begin to deteriorate, leading to vision loss or impairment. Age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa are examples of retinal degenerative diseases.


What does the retinal blood vessels do?

Retinal blood vessels supply oxygen and nutrients to the retina, which is essential for maintaining healthy vision. They also help remove waste products produced by retinal cells. Additionally, these blood vessels can be affected in various eye diseases, leading to conditions such as diabetic retinopathy or retinal vein occlusion.

Which is larger retinal arteries or retinal veins?

Retinal veins are larger than retinal arteries. Retinal veins are between 2/3 to 3/4 times larger than the arteries of the retina. Retinal vein are also darker red then the arteries.


What conditions is retinal cryopexy used to treat?

retinal breaks or detachments; retinal ischemia (retinal tissue that lacks oxygen); neovascularization (proliferation of blood vessels in the retina); Coats' disease


What is retinal vein occlusion?

Retinal vein occlusion refers to the closure of the central retinal vein that drains the retina or to that of one of its branches.


Is potassium related to retinal edema?

Well, honey, potassium isn't directly related to retinal edema. However, an imbalance in electrolytes, including potassium, can contribute to fluid retention in the body, which may indirectly affect the eyes. So, while potassium may not be the main culprit, it's always good to keep those electrolytes in check for overall health.

What is a retinal artery occlusion?

Retinal artery occlusion refers to the closure of the central retinal artery and usually results in complete loss of vision in one eye.

How many different isomers arising from double-bond isomerizations are possible retinal?

Retinal has three isomeric forms resulting from double-bond isomerization: all-trans retinal, 11-cis retinal, and 13-cis retinal. These isomeric forms are essential in the visual cycle and play a crucial role in the mechanism of vision.


What are the two main types of retinal vein occlusion?

The two major RVO types are central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) and branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO).


What conditions predispose a person for retinal detachments?

Patients suffering from retinal detachments are commonly nearsighted, have had eye surgery, experienced ocular trauma, or have a family history of retinal detachments.


What is the likelihood of success in retinal cryopexy?

For retinal reattachments, the retina can be repaired in about 90% of cases. Early treatment almost always improves the vision of most patients with retinal detachment.
