Description and Extensions

Description
NCI2016_NICHD_1602D:Separation of neurosensory retina from the retinal pigment epithelium.|NCI2016_CTCAE_1602D:A disorder characterized by the separation of the inner retina layers from the underlying pigment epithelium.|NCI2016_02D:An eye emergency condition which may lead to blindness if left untreated. It is characterized by the separation of the inner retina layers from the underlying pigment epithelium. Causes include trauma, advanced diabetes mellitus, high myopia, and choroid tumors. Symptoms include sudden appearance of floaters, sudden light flushes, and blurred vision.|MSH2017_2016_08_12:Separation of the inner layers of the retina (neural retina) from the pigment epithelium. Retinal detachment occurs more commonly in men than in women, in eyes with degenerative myopia, in aging and in aphakia. It may occur after an uncomplicated cataract extraction, but it is seen more often if vitreous humor has been lost during surgery. (Dorland, 27th ed; Newell, Ophthalmology: Principles and Concepts, 7th ed, p310-12).|MEDLINEPLUS_20151021:<p>The retina is a layer of tissue in the back of your eye that senses light and sends images to your brain. It provides the sharp, central vision needed for reading, driving, and seeing fine detail. A retinal detachment lifts or pulls the retina from its normal position. It can occur at any age, but it is more common in people over age 40. It affects men more than women and whites more than African Americans. A retinal detachment is also more likely to occur in people who</p> <ul> <li>Are extremely nearsighted</li> <li>Have had a retinal detachment in the other eye</li> <li>Have a family history of retinal detachment</li> <li>Have had cataract surgery</li> <li>Have other eye diseases or disorders</li> <li>Have had an eye injury</li> </ul> <p>Symptoms include an increase in the number of floaters, which are little "cobwebs" or specks that float about in your field of vision, and/or light flashes in the eye. It may also seem like there is a "curtain" over your field of vision.</p> <p>A retinal detachment is a medical emergency. If not promptly treated, it can cause permanent vision loss. If you have any symptoms, see an eye care professional immediately. Treatment includes different types of surgery.</p> <p >NIH: National Eye Institute</p>|HPO2016_07_04:Separation of the inner layers of the retina (neural retina) from the pigment epithelium.
