Abstract
In 7 eyes with posterior vitreous detachment and 4 eyes of familial exudative Vitreoretinopathy, echography and vitreous fluorophotometry were done. In the former group, no correlation between echographic findings and the midvitreous values was found. In the latter group, the midvitreous values in the advanced eyes containing more distinct abnormal echographic findings were higher than those in the less affected eyes showing minimal echographic changes.
