| venula medialis retinae | The small vein that passes from the part of the retina between the macula and the optic disk to join the central vein. Synonym: venula medialis retinae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| venula nasalis retinae inferior | The small vein that passes from the inferior medial (nasal) part of the retina to join the central vein. Synonym: venula nasalis retinae inferior. (05 Mar 2000) |
