Empowering you to live your best life.
Vitreal opacity is a common disease in ophthalmology. It is caused by aging phenomenon and belongs to a kind of fundus disease. Vitreal opacity is normal and does not harm the health of the eye. It will not lead to vision loss, let alone blindness. Vitreal opacity occurs due to the formation of turbid masses in the vitreous body inside the eye due to aging phenomenon. When the outside light is refracted by the vitreous body, it will also project the turbid mass on the retina, so there are punctiform or linear gray-black shadows in the field of vision. In bright environments or white backgrounds, the symptoms will be more obvious. After detailed fundus examination, B-ultrasound examination of language department can confirm mild vitreous opacity, which does not need treatment. Severe vitreous opacity can be absorbed and subsided by oral soft phospholipid complex iodine, and blood and eyesight tablets.
