location of pre-retinal hemes
very superficial

located btw ILM and NFL
description of pre-retinal hemes
boat shaped hemes
what do pre-retinal hemes indicate
peripheral vascular dz
arterial dz
do pre-retinal hemes block view of retina
yes obscures underlying vessels
which heme resolves the fastest
pre-retinal hemes
where are flame shaped hemes located
in the NFL
what is a flame shaped associated with when it comes from the peripapillary capillary bed
glaucoma
radiates from disc
superficial flame shaped heme with inner infarcted area associated with what dz
Roth spot

anemia, leukemia
how long do NFL hemes last
6 weeks
with what conditions are NFL hemes associated with
retinal veion occlussions
HTN

also ONH dysfxn
where are dot and blot hemes located
INL, OPL, ONL
what do dot and blot hemes indicated
venous congestive dz
what conditions are dot and blot hemes seen in
Diabetic Retinopathy
OIS
which heme resolves the slowest
dot and blot hemes
describe dot and blot hemes seen on FANG
blocks NaFl
what should be done if a single dot and blot heme is seen in a patient
nothing, 'normal' to have a signal isolated dot heme
which heme occurs secondary to CNVM
subretinal hemes
where are subretinal hemes located
btw RPE and sensory retina
what color are subretinal hemes and why
hray-green due to color of RPE pigment
what does the RPE fxn as
outer retinal blood barrier
breakthrough of deep hemes
subretinal hemes
what can occur do to a subretinal heme
non-rheg RD
do subretinal hemes obstruct the view of the retina
these are deep so you can see all the retinal features bc it is located UNDER the retina
in what race is WWOP commom in
black>>>asians

not seen in whites
what does WWOP represent
an area of abnormal vitreoretinal interface
Dark WOP in blacks should prompt you to ask for what hx
hx of sickle cell anemia
runs around circumference of eye within 1-2 DD of ora
prominent vitreous base
what is the strongest attachment of the vitreous to the retina
vitreous base
in what race is prominent vitreous base seen in
whites
represents enlrg of RPE cells with large scalloped borders that are very dark and can be small or very large
RPE hypertrophy
what is diagnostic of RPE hypertophy
lacunae - areas of discontinuity
what is RPE hypertrophy related to
if see 4 or more rule out FAP (gardner's yndrome) especially if there is a family hx

FAP - colon cancer
repreents RPE cells invading sensory retina in response to injury, retinal tear, RD, or lattice

demarcation line of RD
RPE hyperplasia
when does demarcation line of RD arise
90 days after RD
RPE hyperplasia seen as
black spot
bone spicules
chorioretinal scars
can RPE hyperplasia cause VA/VF loss
yes
RPE hyperplasia signifies
atrophy of the RPE
lesions that have their outline and color altered are what type and located where
choroidal lesions

located under the RPE thus obstructed due to all the pigmentation
lesions that are dark and well circumscribed are what type and located where
RPE hypertrophy and hyperplasooa

RPE is located under the clear retina
cysts located in OPL that are hazy gray and stippled; precursor to retinoschisis development and lamellar holes
typical cystoid degeneration
cysts located in NFL that are well demarcated and can give rise to full thickness breaks
reticular cystoid degeneration
cystoid degeneration is typically found
temporally
represents loss of choriocapillaris and atrophy or RPE and outer retinal layers can see choroid and sclera underneath
primary chorioretinal atrophy AKA cobblestone/pavingstone degeneration
cobblestone degeneration is common in which pts
blonde fundi
where is cobblestone degen located
IT
grannular pigmentation btw ora and equator seen in pts over 40 and increases with age
peripheral tapetochoroidal degeneration
AKA peripheral senile pigmentary degeneration
what is peripheral tapetochoroidal degeneration
degen and loss of pigment granules in RPE - loss of PR and thickening of Bruch's

looks like RP
located at posterior pole and represents myelination
myellinated NF
calcium salts/cholesterol crystals located in the vitreous that is benign and asymptomatic
asteroid hyalosis
age at which vascular dz becomes prevalent
65 except in DM
location of most retinal dz
OPL
