Know the vitreous metabolic function and intervene it cautiously / 中华眼底病杂志

Vitreous is composed of transparent gel-like tissue with complex molecular structure,accounting for 80％ of the volume of the eyeball.In addition to support the eye structure,vitreous has important functions such as regulating eye development,refraction and cellular barriers,participating in intraocular oxygen metabolism and the development of retinal diseases.Age,myopia and systemic diseases and other factors have an impact on vitreous function.Intra-vitreous injection and vitreous surgery may interfere with vitreous function,damage the intraocular metabolic balance.To better maintain intraocular metabolic balance and visual function,it is important to study vitreous metabolic function carefully and intervene it cautiously.
