The vitreous gel pulls away from the back wall of the eyecausingposterior vitreous detachment

Long term uncontrolled diabetic retinopathy ... the eyecan causehemorrhaging , retinal detachment

tear , hole or a break in retina(passive) is caused byRhegmatogenous retinal detachment

As we age , the vitreous gel liquifies and separates from the retinacausinga posterior vitreous detachment

the collapse of vitreous gel(passive) caused byposterior vitreous detachment

It can pull away from the back wall of the eyecausinga posterior vitreous detachment

the pulling of membranes tethered to the retina(passive) is caused byTractional Retinal Detachment

Retinal hemangioblastomas ... large lesionscausetractional retinal detachment

These new vessels are fragile and can bleed into the vitreous gel ; they can also pull on the retinacausingretinal detachment

subsequent organization and contraction of the vitreous(passive) is caused byTractional retinal detachment

Over time , abnormal blood vessels create scar tissue that pulls the retina away from the back of the eyecausingretinal detachment

These new vessels grow over the retina and into the vitreous gelcausingretinal detachment

by dysfunction of choroid and RPE(passive) caused byserous retinal detachment

a posterior vitreous detachment leading to a retinal tear or hole(passive) is caused byRetinal Detachment

by dysfunction of choroid(passive) caused byserous retinal detachment

accumulation over subretinal matter(passive) is caused bySerous retinal detachment

vessels grow over the retina and into the vitreous gelcausingretinal detachment

Retinal tears due to pressure on the vitreous body ( vitreous tractionoften causeretinal detachment

only retinal breaks , tears , or holescauseretinal detachment

Fibrous scar tissue may pull on retinacausingretinal detachment

because fluid can enter through the tear under the retinacausingretinal detachment
