Vitreous prolapse - what does this mean
Vitreous prolapse occurs when the vitreous, the gel-like substance that normally fills the eye, begins to separate from the retina and moves forward, pushing through the opening of the pupil and out of the eye. this can cause vision impairment and other complications.
What happens during the disease - vitreous prolapse
Vitreous prolapse is a condition in which the vitreous, a gel-like substance that fills the middle of the eye, detaches from the retina and protrudes into the anterior chamber. this can occur due to age-related changes in the vitreous, trauma, or inflammation. as the vitreous pulls away from the retina, it can cause retinal tears and detachment, leading to vision loss.
