Learning outcomesBy the end of the lecture the students
would be able to: Identify the symptoms of VR disorders
and correlate them with underlying pathophysiological mechanisms.
Classify VR disorders into broad categories.
Describe the clinical presentation and epidemiology of RD
Correlate the mechanism of retinal detachment with the development (RD) of the eye
Classify RD Identify major causes of RD Outline the principles of management

Common symptoms of VR diseases
Blurred vision/decreased vision Distorted vision ( metamorphopsia) Difficulty in near work difficulty in recognizing faces Something blocking central vision ( positive
scotoma) Minified image/micoropsia-spreading apart of
foveal cones Magnification of images/ macropsia-crowding
of cones at fovea

Problems with colour vision Difficulty in dark adaptation Field loss Seeing sparkilign bright lights/
photopsia Seeing webs/ black dots -floaters Difficulty in night vision-nyctalopia Difficulty in day vision-hemeralopia

Common signs
Decreased visual acuity RAPD Opacities in the vitreous Liquified vitreous gel Cells in the vitreous Signs in the retina specific to the specific disease

Classification of VR disorders
Diseases of the vitreous Retinal Detachment Vascular retinopahties Vitreoretinal degenerations Inflammatory & infective disorders Tumours of the retina

DEVELOPMENT OF THE EYE
![Page 10: VR Disorders; Clinical presentation, classification and RD](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081520/568164d8550346895dd71b7a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What is RD?
Separation of the sensory retina from the retinal pigment epithelium by the subretinal fluid
![Page 11: VR Disorders; Clinical presentation, classification and RD](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081520/568164d8550346895dd71b7a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Rhegmatogenous RDNon- rhegmatogenous
–Exudative RD–Tractional
TYPES
![Page 12: VR Disorders; Clinical presentation, classification and RD](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081520/568164d8550346895dd71b7a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
RRD-some anatomical considerations
Vitreo-retinal adhesions disc, ora, blood vessels & at fovea
Potential subretinal space

RRDRD secondary to a break in the retina
![Page 15: VR Disorders; Clinical presentation, classification and RD](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081520/568164d8550346895dd71b7a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Causes & risk factors
In 15% of cases with Posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) a tear develops in the retina
60% of tears develop in peripheral retina with retinal degenerations like Lattice degeneration
40% of the RD occur in myopic eyes; the higher the error the greater the risk
Post- Cataract surgery (pseudophakia) ; especially in eyes with retinal degeneration and myopia can develop retinal tears and RRD

Clinical presentation –symptoms
Flashes of light Floaters Visual loss Visual field loss Usually an acute event History of predisposing factors, myopia,
cataract surgery, trauma etc

Principles of management
External temponade/ scleral buckling– Seal the break– Create a buckle– Drain the SRF-if required
Internal temponade/

Prophylaxis of RRD
Photocoagulation of the risky lesions with laser
So patients with risk facotrs should be referred for treatment/ consideration of the treatment
