Abstract：
:Detachment of the retinal pigment epithelium is a prominent feature of many chorio-retinal disease processes, the most prevalent of which is age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Detachment of the retinal pigment epithelium may or may not be associated with choroidal neovascularization and may be caused by different types of pathogenesis, each associated with distinct angiographic features, natural course, visual prognosis, and response to treatment. The phrase "detachment of the retinal pigment epithelium" is used quite often, not always in the correct association and with no clear differentiation between its various types. It is important to identify the specific nature of detachment of the retinal pigment epithelium, and to establish an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan. Therefore, we present a review of the existing types of detachment of the retinal pigment epithelium with what we propose as being appropriate nomenclature and classification, and potential treatment recommendations.
