Intraretinal Microvascular Abnormality (IrMA) - University of Iowa
Category(ies): Retina/Vitreous Intraretinal microvascular abnormalities (or IrMAs) are shunt vessels and appear as abnormal branching or dilation of existing blood vessels (capillaries) within the retina that act to supply areas of non-perfusion in diabetic retinopathy.

Apr 6, 2016 · Figure 3A: Fluorescein angiogram of the right eye demonstrating NVE at 9:00 with marked late leakage inferotemporally in the area of retinal neovascularization. Figure 3B: Fluorescein angiogram of the left eye showing hypofluorescence over the disc and macula from overlying vitreous hemorrhage. Note the late leakage from NVE in the superior retina.

Conversely, NV tends to be much finer and delicate in caliber, and is sometimes more focal in location depending on its severity. In severe cases, NV tends to grow along the posterior hyaloid interface especially around the optic nerve (i.e. NVD) and periphery (i.e. NVE).

May 11, 2017 · Category(ies): Retina, Vitreous Contributor: Christopher Kirkpatrick, MD Photographer: Samantha Jacobo. The left eye shows severe neovascularization of the disc (NVD) that extends down along the inferior arcade with tufts of neovascularization elsewhere (NVE) along both the inferior and superior arcades. The right eye had similar findings.

Feb 14, 2018 · The retina frequently appears completely normal before the acute event. Horseshoe tears are more common in middle age and appear most often near the equator of the eye. It is important to perform scleral depression on any patient with acute onset of flashes and/or floaters if a retinal tear is suspected.
Bilateral Diffuse Uveal Melanocytic Proliferation (BDUMP)
Dec 7, 2014 · The etiology of retinal detachment is unclear, but it is thought that a poorly-functioning retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and breakdown of the blood-retina barrier are involved. The etiology of rapid cataract formation (as rapid as 3 months) has been hypothesized to result from ciliary body involvement, leading to inadequate aqueous volume ...
