Vitreoretinal interface: current concepts

Assessment of the vitreoretinal interface has been greatly aided by the development of optical coherence tomography, in 1995. This imaging technology has allowed us to study involutional and disease processes that were previously unrecognizable by biomicroscopy and ultrasonography alone.This article will review these studies and illustrate the usefulness of optical coherence tomography in the evaluation of the vitreoretinal interface.
