Medical Definition of Juvenile retinoschisis
1. Retinoschisis occurring before 10 years of age and within the nerve-fibre layer, with frequent macular involvement; at first, the inner wall is a translucent veil-like membrane, but it becomes more dense and may render the retina white; autosomal recessive inheritance. There is a form of this condition in middle age that is X-linked and a rare autosomal dominant form. (05 Mar 2000)
