Retrolental Space

The retrolentale space (spatium retro-lentale) is the area between the posterior surface of the lens and the anterior surface of the retina in the posterior chamber of the eye. This area is important for vision as it ensures that images are focused on the retina.

The retrolental space is formed because the lens is a flexible lens that can change its shape and curvature to focus images on the retina. When an image hits the lens, it changes its shape to create a focal length that matches the distance to the object.

However, if the retrolental space becomes too narrow or too wide, it can cause images to become out of focus on the retina and cause various visual problems such as nearsightedness or farsightedness. Therefore, it is important to maintain a normal retrolental space to ensure proper image focusing.

To do this, you can use various methods such as eye exercises, proper nutrition, weight control and other measures that will help maintain the health of the lens. You can also consult an ophthalmologist for consultation and diagnosis of the condition of the retrolental space.

In general, the retrolental space plays an important role in the human visual system and its health, so it is necessary to monitor its condition and take measures to maintain it.



Retrolental space (lat. spatium retrolens) is a narrow slit-like pocket in the vitreous filled with crystals (drops of the vitreous body), surrounded by the anatomical walls of the ciliary body on all sides except the back. In Russian-language literature, the abbreviation **RLP** is accepted, which is colloquialism for the correct term “retrolental space”.

Tachycystolia, or uveotachykistyly, is a type of aniridia, a pathological condition of the eye, characterized by the appearance of retrolental spaces.
