What is Vitreous Hemorrhage?

Vitreous hemorrhage occurs when blood enters the vitreous cavity due to damaged or abnormal retinal blood vessels.

  • Affects the vitreous gel inside the eye

  • Can partially or completely block vision

  • Usually linked to retinal diseases

It is a symptom of an underlying eye condition, not a disease itself
