What is lattice degeneration of retina?

Lattice degeneration is a common peripheral retinal degeneration that is characterized by localized retinal thinning, overlying vitreous liquefaction, and marginal vitreoretinal adhesion. The condition is associated with atrophic retinal holes, retinal tears, and retinal detachments.

Is lattice degeneration a disease?

Lattice degeneration is a condition that affects the retina, which is the tissue at the back of the eye essential for clear and proper vision. Lattice degeneration affects the peripheral portions of the retina, resulting in the tissue developing a lattice pattern.

What causes lattice degeneration of the eye?

Ehlers-Danlos: A genetic connective tissue disease where joints are hyper-extendable and skin is abnormally elastic. This disease is associated with an increased risk of lattice degeneration and retinal detachment. Fundus: The back of the eye where the retina, macula, vitreous, choroid, and optic nerve are located.

How is lattice degeneration diagnosed?

Lattice degeneration itself does not cause symptoms, so the only way to diagnose the condition is with a dilated fundus examination by an eye care provider. A dilated fundus examination is done by administering dilating eye drops in your eyes to expand the pupil so that the retina can be carefully evaluated.

What is lattice in ophthalmology?

Lattice degeneration is a thinning of the retina that happens over time. About 10 percent of people (1 in 10) have lattice degeneration. You need a healthy retina to see clearly, but most with this condition never have any symptoms or a loss in vision. Rarely, lattice degeneration can lead to retinal detachment.

What is the treatment for lattice degeneration?

Lattice degeneration is typically treated with laser to strengthen the retina in areas where it is weak. Side effects are reasonably uncommon, but the risk of side effects increases with the amount of lattice and treatment required. Possible side effects include an increase in pupil size in the treated eye.

Can lattice degeneration cause blindness?

What are symptoms of lattice degeneration? Lattice degeneration does not have any symptoms. But because the retina is thinner with lattice degeneration, it may tear, break, or get holes easier. This can lead to retinal detachment, which can cause blindness without treatment.

Can you have cataract surgery with lattice degeneration?

When a patient with lattice degeneration is considered for cataract surgery, one management option includes prophylactic treatment. Given the low incidence of retinal detachment, it is unnecessary to treat all patients with lattice degeneration prophylactically.

At what age does lattice degeneration start?

Lattice patients with low to moderate degrees of myopia tend to develop detachments between 40 and 60 years of age caused by premature posterior vitreous separation and tractional tears.
