In a detached retina, the site of detachment is found
High-Yield Explanation
The site of retinal detachment is between the pigment epithelial layer and the layer of outer segments of rods and cones; this corresponds to the intraretinal space between the inner and outer layers of the optic cup. Retinal detachment occurs when fluid from the vitreous compament passes through a retinal hole and separates the pigment epithelial layer from the layer of outer segments of rods and cones.
