| commotio retinae | Concussion of the retina that may produce a milky oedema in the posterior pole that clears up after a few days. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cyanosis retinae | Venous congestion of the retina. Shunt cyanosis, any blue colour of the entire skin or a region of the skin or mucous membrane due to a right to left shunt permitting unoxygenated blood to reach the left side of the circulation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratum cerebrale retinae | The internal layer of the retina containing the neural elements, as distinguished from the outer leaf of the retina, or pigmented layer. Synonym: pars optica retinae, neural layer of retina, optic part of retina, stratum cerebrale retinae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratum ganglionare retinae | The intermediate layer of neurons in the retina composed largely of bipolar cells. Synonym: internal nuclear layer of retina, stratum ganglionare retinae, stratum nucleare internum retinae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratum moleculare retinae | Name applied to each of the plexiform layers of the retina. Synonym: stratum moleculare retinae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratum neuroepitheliale retinae | The outermost layer of the cerebral layer of retina, composed of the primary receptor cells of the retina; the stratum consists of two sublayers: 1) an external layer made up of the rods and cones, the photosensitive processes of the receptor cells, and 2) the external nuclear layer containing the cell bodies of these cells; the external limiting membrane forms a perforated supporting plate between the two sublayers; the name refers to the fact that the retinal receptor cells are a specialised form of (epithelial) ependyma cell and thus, in a sense, are comparable to the neuroepithelial cells (e.g., hair cells) of other sense organs. Synonym: external nuclear layer of retina, stratum neuroepitheliale retinae, stratum nucleare externum retinae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratum nucleare externum et internum retinae | The outer nuclear layer, layer 4, of the retina, neuroepithelial layer of retina, and the inner layer, layer 6, of the retina, ganglionic layer of retina. Synonym: granular layers of retina, stratum nucleare externum et internum retinae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratum nucleare externum retinae | The outermost layer of the cerebral layer of retina, composed of the primary receptor cells of the retina; the stratum consists of two sublayers: 1) an external layer made up of the rods and cones, the photosensitive processes of the receptor cells, and 2) the external nuclear layer containing the cell bodies of these cells; the external limiting membrane forms a perforated supporting plate between the two sublayers; the name refers to the fact that the retinal receptor cells are a specialised form of (epithelial) ependyma cell and thus, in a sense, are comparable to the neuroepithelial cells (e.g., hair cells) of other sense organs. Synonym: external nuclear layer of retina, stratum neuroepitheliale retinae, stratum nucleare externum retinae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratum nucleare internum retinae | The intermediate layer of neurons in the retina composed largely of bipolar cells. Synonym: internal nuclear layer of retina, stratum ganglionare retinae, stratum nucleare internum retinae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratum pigmenti retinae | The outer layer of the retina, consisting of pigmented epithelium. Synonym: ectoretina, stratum pigmenti bulbi, stratum pigmenti retinae, tapetum nigrum, tapetum oculi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratum plexiforme externum et internum retinae | Layer's of the retina where synapses occur; in the external layer, processes of rods and cones synapse with bipolar neuron dendrites; in the internal layer, axon terminals of bipolar cells synapse with ganglion cell dendrites. See: retina. Synonym: stratum plexiforme externum et internum retinae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| striae retinae | Concentric lines on the surface of an abnormal retina. Synonym: Paton's lines. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dialysis retinae | Congenital or traumatic separation of the peripheral sensory retina from the retinal pigment epithelium at the ora serrata, often causing a retinal detachment. Synonym: retinodialysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fovea centralis retinae | A depression in the centre of the macula retinae containing only cones and lacking blood vessels. Synonym: fovea centralis retinae, central pit. (05 Mar 2000) |
