Wagner's disease also refers to vitreoretinal dystrophies with an autosomal dominant type of inheritance. The gene responsible for the development of Wagner's disease is localized on the long arm of the 5th chromosome.
Goldman-Favre disease is progressive vitreoretinal dystrophy with an autosomal recessive type of inheritance, which is characterized by a combination of retinitis pigmentosa with bone bodies, retinoschisis (central and peripheral), and changes in the vitreous (degeneration with the formation of membranes).
Involutional macular degeneration of the retina (synonyms: age, senile, central chorioretinal dystrophy, age-related macular dystrophy, AMD) is the main cause of vision loss in people over 50 years old.
Pigment retinitis (retinitis pigmental degeneration, taperotinal degeneration) is a disease characterized by the defeat of pigment epithelium and photoreceptors with different types of inheritance: autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive or sex-linked.
Retinal dystrophy occurs as a result of a disturbance of the function of the terminal capillaries, pathological processes in them. These changes include pigmentary dystrophy of the retina - hereditary disease of the mesh shell.
The diseases of the retina are very diverse. The diseases of the retina are caused by the influence of various factors leading to pathologoanatomical and pathological physiological changes, which in turn determines violations of visual functions and the presence of characteristic symptoms.
Anomalies in the development of the membranes of the eye are detected immediately after birth. The occurrence of anomalies is caused by mutation of genes, chromosomal abnormalities, exposure to exogenous and endogenous toxic factors during the intrauterine period of development.
