Thank you for the response. There was no ocular bleeding or known trauma at the time; most of the immediate damage was to the brain and body. The retinoschesis was discovered several years later during an intense exam to determine if the eyes were a source of migraines.

ETA: I admire the heck out of your profession. I’d have gone into optometry/ophthalmology if I could’ve turned back time

Is it possible for a severe TBI to cause retinoschschisis? Say a person gets into a bad accident where they’re thrown from the vehicle and hit their head? How long does a person have to get to emergency care should they see signs of retinal separation?

Thanks!
