Term info
Clinically speaking, distinguishing between preretinal and subhyaloid hemorrhages is difficult. Therefore, clinicians often use the terms interchangeably. A D-shaped or boat-shaped appearance may be observed, because the blood accumulates within loosely adherent tissue of the superficial retina and can spread and settle inferiorly with gravity. A sharp demarcation line is usually evident.
