Pavingstone degeneration is a common degeneration of the peripheral retina that does not predispose to retinal detachment.

The choriocapillaris degenerates, with subsequent loss of retinal pigment epithelium. There is adherence between the remaining thinned retina and choroidal connective tissue. It is bilateral in approximately one third of cases and would appear to slowly progress over time. It is not inherited or associated with any systemic complications
