Persistent Fetal Vasculature (PFV)
-
Persistent fetal vasculature (PFV) is a rare congenital condition where the blood vessels in the eye fail to fully develop before birth, leading to abnormal connections between the retina and other structures within the eye. This can result in a variety of symptoms, including poor vision or even complete blindness in severe cases. Treatment options vary depending on the severity of the condition and may include surgery to remove scar tissue to establish a clear visual axis.
