Normal Retinal vascularization has two phases: In the first fase, cells of mesenquimatous origin form the first superficial plexus (14-21 weeks of gestation). In the second phase, denominated "angiogenesis phase", the superficial and deep capillary plexus are formed (15,20). The second phase is highly dependent of VEGF induced by hypoxia (15,20). In the normal retina the growth occurs from the optical nerve to the periphery (17).
