FEATURES OF THE VITREOUS BODY STRUCTURE IN PATIENTS WITH DIABETES MELLITUS

Abstract

The fine structure and some functions of the vitreous body remain to this day not fully elucidated, but the existing knowledge suggests that CT is not only a special, but also a very complex tissue. The main form of its abiotrophic reaction to various pathological situations is the syneresis of the gel with the formation of liquefied or compacted fractions. The tendency of the decaying collagen skeleton to shift to the zones of its embryogenesis creates prerequisites for the mechanical involvement of the retina in the process, its ruptures, the formation of folds, detachment, retinal hemorrhages, etc. The appearance of free cavities - reservoirs of fluid, obviously, can be an element of the pathogenesis of glaucoma and retinal detachment. The clinically observed CT skeleton may play a stimulating or restraining role in pathological tissue growths inside the eyeball (tumors, mooring).
