Abstract

This article is an analysis of theoretical aspects of etiopathogenesis of the macular zone of the eye in terms of glymphatic circulation of tissue fluid. To date, a lot of data has been accumulated on functional and structural changes of the macular zone in normal and in various pathologies. The genesis of macular edemas along with subretinal and choroidal neovascularisation could be highlighted and understood from a different point of view if assuming the presence of the glymphatic para- and perivascular fluid flow within the retina, channels in the vitreous body and the choroid. Clinical features of the various eye diseases including hereditary, highlight the paravascular glymphatic outflow routes. As a result of the data analysis, a new theory of disease development in the macular region has been developed for the first time, which explains the pathogenetic mechanisms of occurrence and progression of macular pathology based on the principles of glymphatic current.
