HUMAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) is downloaded weekly from http://compbio.charite.de/hudson/job/hpo/lastStableBuild/artifact/ontology/release/hp.obo. The file downloaded is considered the "last stable build" available for the ontology. For more about the HPO, view their website at http://www.human-phenotype-ontology.org/.

Definition:Deposits of various size, shape, consistency, refractive index, and motility within the eye's vitreous humour, which is normally transparent.
Comment:Vitreous floaters are described as vitreous condensations (or vitreous debris or vitreous opacities) as a finding upon ophthalmological examination. Floaters can take many forms from little dots, circles, lines, to clouds or cobwebs. The floaters are created by a shadow of the floating vitreal debris that is projected onto the retina, which is described as a veil.
