Is vitreoretinal disease a hereditary disease?

Patient's question:

Patient Gender: Male
Findings on Contrast: In the OD retina A.V stage, the retinal vessels appear straightened and stretched temporally. Temporally, there are areas of non-perfusion. Temporally in the macula, there are patchy areas of fluorescence staining. In the OS retina, the vessels are straightened, and the temporal vessels extend towards the periphery.
Analysis of Results: Familial Exudative Vitreoretinopathy OU (Refuse voice responses, thank you!!)

Doctor's answer:

Hello, considering the condition and symptoms, it is relatively serious. It is recommended to undergo a comprehensive eye examination at a professional and large-scale ophthalmology department. After diagnosis, active symptomatic treatment should be carried out. Since the causes of retinopathy of prematurity are diverse, it is essential to understand the etiology before treatment and implement symptomatic treatment principles. Moreover, nursing measures in daily life are indispensable. It is advised to drink more water and consume vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins regularly.
