La conmoción retiniana, la concusión retiniana y el edema de Berlín constituyen una misma entidad.

El edema aumenta progresivamente en veinticuatro horas para desaparecer de forma paulatina tras algunos días, restableciéndose la visión. [...] en otros casos, aunque inicialmente la visión puede ser buena, disminuye gradualmente, asociándose con el desarrollo de depósitos pigmentarios en la mácula, formaciones quísticas e incluso agujeros. 2, record 2, Spanish, - concusi%C3%B3n%20de%20la%20retina
