Anisocoria is usually not related to retina unless there are side issues in the retina, such as a vascular disease like venous occlusion or diabetic neuropathy, which causes a decrease of the reaction with defected pupil.
Pupil afferent or failure in this can be graded from mild to severe. As a percentage top 10% (below) general population has anisocoria, with little difference between the size of pupil (generally to 2 mm).
Unlike the detachment of the retina, and the separation of one of the layers of the retina, a point of cleavage, external or internal, and the examination of mapping of retina you notes one aspect of retina globose, but it is not usually in the bottom and temporal retinal periphery.
There are things that may apply to make a differentiation as the test of indentation. An examination of ultrasonography (ultrasound type B) may also help to distinguish, but it is less important. Moreover, these are amendments to col courses also maculosa (central visual field in), with aspects foveal "on star", and is classified in the field of "retinal dystrophy.
If the doctor has indicated laser lattice, let him do! It is a great preventative for detachment of the retina. This type of degeneration of peripheral retina should be treated preventively. Now, the "flying flies" or "floaters" that you see "past" in your field of vision cannot disappear.
Laser treatment for lattice will be done on the periphery of the retina, will not lead to visual loss, is for treatment of retinal injury and not to "remove" the flies fly, which are nothing less than the vitreous or the jelly of the eye "separated. Discuss this with your ophthalmologist. It is worth doing, does not regret.
Detachment in the left eye and seventeen days after the vitreous surgery off whole, and further surgery was not possible, because I was not able to withdraw it and where I lived at the time I had vitrectomy ophthalmology which was the result completely lost the vision of the left eye and now atrophied due to a right eye had chronic inflammation.
No detachment last year, in September, the doctor who attended me did and I have laser eye in all guarantee more security, I was very afraid, many pain in left eye after laser, see other ophthalmology, I do not know if he knows he is a professor at a school of medicine and a specialist in retina and vitreous cavity.
He said that the procedure was safe because I have cataract in this eye and had to do after a surgery of that time. He assured me that there is no risk, then the laser was done in the whole retina because the vitreous is off, I transplanted it and my cornea is opacified. Risk of retinal still running off
Retinal detachment, and refractive surgery
The patient must do the mapping of the retina to see if there are other problems in the retina and retinal holes and see if the visual potential is good, if it is worth the same.
Floaters are the so-called fly flies and are in the posterior vitreous detachment. The idea is that your doctor do the mapping of the retina once a year. Is there than the flies fly light flashes, this is worse, can predict the retinal detachment by traction of the retina floaters.
have floaters already a little over a year and a half, and after a while appeared a few points as if they were transparent bubbles of water and now finally started to see small tiny light visible only in a course that leaves me very ugly.
