A member asked:

Thin blood vessels behind the eye, should i be concerned?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Retina abnormality??: Are you implying it was noted inside your eye? Unable to directly "visualize" blood vessels "behind" eye without orbital scanning. I would seek clarification from whomever noted this finding.
