ABSTRACT
The vitreous in both normal eyes of 671 normal subjects was studied biomicroscopically. The results obtained were as follows 1. In 618 cases of a refractive error less than -3D (group A) and 53 cases of refractive error over -3D (group B), the incidence of posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) in both eyes increased with age and the absence of PVD in both eyes decreased with age. The percentage of cases with PVD in one eye and no PVD in the other eye was less than 22% in all age groups. 2. There was no significant difference in the degree of vitreous liquefaction between the right and the left eyes. The degree of vitreous liquefaction was also age-related. 3. In the cases with PVD in one eye and no PVD in the other eye, a higher incidence of mild vitreous liquefaction was found in group A than in group B. 4. PVD without collapsed vitreous (simple PVD) in both eyes was observed only in group A. 5. Our results indicated that the vitreous findings in both eyes of an individual were almost identical, and PVD may occur with less vitreous liquefaction in group A than in group B.
