The story of microcystoid degeneration, retinoschisis and retinal detachment

Welcome to our comprehensive video on senile/acquired *retinoschisis**. In this video, we cover everything you need to know about **retinoschisis* from A to Z.

#### Topics Covered:
1. *Microcystoid Peripheral Retinal Degeneration*
  - **Typical Microcystoid Degeneration**: Characterized by small, round cysts in the peripheral retina.
  - **Reticular Degeneration**: Marked by a net-like pattern of cysts.
  - Understand the prevalence of these degenerations in older adults and their usually asymptomatic nature.

2. **What is Retinoschisis? **
  - Learn what *retinoschisis* is, focusing on the splitting of retinal layers.
  - Explore the types of **retinoschisis**:
    - **Typical Retinoschisis**: Often found in the outer layers of the retina.
    - **Reticular Retinoschisis**: Involves the inner retinal layers with a net-like appearance.
  - Understand the symptoms and common locations of *retinoschisis* in the retina.

3. *How Retinoschisis Leads to Retinal Detachment*
  - Discover how *retinoschisis* can sometimes progress to retinal detachment.
  - Understand the process where fluid accumulates between the retinal layers, potentially leading to a tear and subsequent detachment.

4. *Differentiating Retinoschisis from Retinal Detachment*
  - Learn the key differences:
    - **Retinoschisis**: Smooth, taut retinal surface with no shifting fluid.
    - **Retinal Detachment**: Rippled, loose retinal surface with shifting fluid present.
  - Understand how to diagnose each condition through ophthalmic exams, OCT, and ultrasound.

This video provides a detailed and easy-to-understand explanation of **degenerative retinoschisis**. Watch now to gain valuable insights into these important eye health topics.
