Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of programmed cell death that occurs in the retina. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the eye over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The eye is the organ of sight. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of programmed cell death that occurs in the retina. Programmed cell death that occurs in the developing retina. Programmed cell death that occurs in the retina to remove excess cells between ommatidia, thus resulting in a hexagonal lattice, precise with respect to cell number and position surrounding each ommatidium. A biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of a cell over time from an initial condition to a later condition. Morphogenesis of an organ. An organ is defined as a tissue or set of tissues that work together to perform a specific function or functions. Morphogenesis is the process by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Organs are commonly observed as visibly distinct structures, but may also exist as loosely associated clusters of cells that work together to perform a specific function or functions. The process by which the anatomical structures of the eye are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. Cell death resulting from activation of endogenous cellular processes. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the cell over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Cell development does not include the steps involved in committing a cell to a specific fate. The activation of endogenous cellular processes that result in the death of a cell as part of its development. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of programmed cell death that occurs in the retina.
