The Retinal vasculature refers to the blood vessels that supply the retina, which is the thin layer of tissue located at the back of the eye.
It is responsible for detecting light and sending visual information to the brain.
The retinal vasculature includes both arteries and veins, which branch out from the optic nerve and supply oxygen and nutrients to the retina.
