Retinal hemorrhage (UK English: retinal haemorrhage) is a disorder of the eye in which bleeding occurs in the retina, the light sensitive tissue, located on the back wall of the eye. [1] There are photoreceptor cells in the retina called rods and cones , which transduce light energy into nerve signals that can be processed by the brain to form ...
Intraretinal microvascular abnormalities (IRMA) are abnormalities of the blood vessels that supply the retina of the eye, a sign of diabetic retinopathy. [1] IRMA can be difficult to distinguish from and is likely a precursor to retinal neovascularization .
Advanced retinopathy lesions, such as microaneurysms, blot hemorrhages and/or flame hemorrhages, ischemic changes (e.g. "cotton wool spots"), hard exudates and in severe cases swelling of the optic disc (optic disc edema), a ring of exudates around the retina called a "macular star" and visual acuity loss, typically due to macular involvement.

The vitreous, sub-hyaloid, subretinal space, intraretinal regions, or beneath the internal limiting membrane are some of the locations where the hemorrhages may occur in the eye. According to Sohan Hayreh , the rupture of capillaries in the optic nerve, which is most likely brought on by elevated retinal venous pressure from central retinal ...
Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) responses are measured with an EOG test with skin-contact electrodes placed near the canthi. During a recording, the patient's eyes are exposed to standardized stimuli and the resulting signal is displayed showing the time course of the signal's amplitude (voltage). Signals are very small, and typically are ...
In the early hours of New Year’s Day, Elon Musk lobbed a series of angry posts and allegations towards British Prime Minister Keir Starmer – engulfing his government in a very public fight ...
Fracture of the inner segment/outer segment layer, change of retinal pigment epithelium interdigitation linked to intraretinal edema of the outer nuclear layer, neurosensory retinal detachment, and increased reflectivity of the line at the junction of the photoreceptor inner and outer segments in the healing phase have also been reported in ...
