AIMS To identify variations in posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) and establish a clinical classification system for PVD. METHODS 400 consecutive eyes were examined using biomicroscopy and vitreous photography and classified the PVD variations-complete PVD with collapse, complete PVD without collapse, partial PVD with thickened posterior vitreous cortex (TPVC), or partial PVD without TPVC. ...
متن کاملClassification of posterior vitreous detachment
Diagnosing a posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) is important for predicting the prognosis and determining the indication for vitreoretinal surgery in many vitreoretinal diseases. This article presents both classifications of a PVD by slit-lamp biomicroscopy and of a shallow PVD by optical coherence tomography (OCT).

متن کاملPosterior vitreous detachment induced by microplasmin.
PURPOSE To demonstrate the efficacy of microplasmin in inducing posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) and to evaluate the human and the feline retina after treatment. METHODS Thirteen human donor eyes were injected with 62.5, 125, or 188 micro g microplasmin. The 13 fellow eyes received balanced salt solution. Four of the microplasmin-treated eyes received an additional intravitreal gas injecti...
متن کاملRelationship between variations in posterior vitreous detachment and visual prognosis in idiopathic epiretinal membranes
PURPOSE To clarify the relationship between variations in posterior vitreous detachments (PVDs) and visual prognoses in idiopathic epiretinal membranes (ERMs). METHODS In this retrospective, observational, and consecutive case series, we observed variations in PVDs in 37 patients (mean age, 65.7±11.0 years) with ERMs and followed them for 2 years. Three PVD types were found biomicroscopically...
