| retinal necrosis syndrome, acute | <ophthalmology> Mild to fulminant necrotizing vaso-occlusive retinitis associated with a high incidence of retinal detachment and poor vision outcome. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| retinal neovascularization | <ophthalmology> New blood vessels originating from the retinal veins and extending along the inner (vitreal) surface of the retina. This process is characterised by a diseased retina with a disturbed vascular bed. Neovascularization is associated with a variety of conditions including vascular occlusion, sickle cell diseases, sarcoidosis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| retinal perforation | <ophthalmology> Perforations through the whole thickness of the retina including the macula as the result of inflammation, trauma, degeneration, etc. The concept includes retinal breaks, tears, dialyses, and holes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| retinal pigmented epithelial cell | See: pigmented retinal epithelium, retina. (18 Nov 1997) |
| retinal pigments | <ophthalmology, physiology> Chemicals functioning in the visual cycle in retinal rod cells. Through excitation by visible light, a series of complex molecular changes occur that serve to trigger in the optical nerve endings an impulse transmitted to the brain, resulting in the perception of vision. (12 Dec 1998) |
| retinal reductase | Alcohol dehydrogenase (NAD(P)+). (05 Mar 2000) |
| retinal rod | <ophthalmology, physiology> Major photoreceptor cell of vertebrate retina (about 125 million in a human eye). Columnar cells (about 40m long, 1m diameter) having three distinct regions: a region adjacent to and synapsed with, the neural layer of the retina contains the nucleus and other cytoplasmic organelles, below this is the inner segment, rich in mitochondria, that is connected through a thin neck (in which is located a ciliary body) to the outer segment. The outer segment largely consists of a stack of discs membrane infoldings that are incompletely separated in cones) that are continually replenished near the inner segment and that are shed from the distal end and phagocytosed by the pigmented epithelium. The membranes of the discs are rich in rhodopsin, the pigment that absorbs light. (03 Jul 1999) |
| retinal vein | <ophthalmology> Central retinal vein and its tributaries. It runs a short course within the optic nerve and then leaves and empties into the superior ophthalmic vein or cavernous sinus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| retinal vein occlusion | <ophthalmology> Occlusion of the retinal vein. Those at high risk for this condition include patients with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, arteriosclerosis, and other cardiovascular diseases. (12 Dec 1998) |
| retinal vessels | <ophthalmology> The vessels which supply and drain the retina. (12 Dec 1998) |
| retinaldehyde | <chemical> A carotenoid constituent of visual pigments. It is the oxidised form of retinol which functions as the active component of the visual cycle. It is bound to the protein opsin forming the complex rhodopsin. When stimulated by visible light, the retinal component of the rhodopsin complex undergoes isomerization at the 11-position of the double bond to the cis-form; this is reversed in "dark" reactions to return to the native trans-configuration. Chemical name: Retinal (03 Jul 1999) |
| retinaldehyde dehydrogenase | An oxidoreductase catalyzing the interconversion of retinaldehyde and NAD+ to retinoic acid and NADH; thus affecting growth and differentiation. Synonym: retinaldehyde dehydrogenase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| retinaldehyde isomerase | <enzyme> Converts all-trans-retinal to 11-cis-retinal Registry number: EC 5.2.1.3 Synonym: retinal photoisomerase (26 Jun 1999) |
| retinaldehyde reductase | Alcohol dehydrogenase (NAD(P)+). (05 Mar 2000) |
| retinalite | <chemical> A translucent variety of serpentine, of a honey yellow or greenish yellow colour, having a waxy resinlike luster. Origin: Gr. Resin. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |

| retinopathy of prematurity |
a bilateral retinopathy typically occurring in premature infants treated with high concentrations of oxygen, characterized by vascular dilatation, proliferation, and tortuosity, edema, and retinal detachment, with ultimate conversion of the retina into a fibrous mass that can be seen as a dense retrolental membrane; usually, growth of the eye is arrested and may result in microphthalmia, and blindness may occur. Called also retrolental fibroplasia and Terry's syndrome.
