Time of presentation and final visual outcome at our hospital are shown in [Table 1]. One patient (10%) came to the hospital on the same day. The mean time of presentation was 15.3 days. Two patients (20%) presented within a week. [kjophthal.com]

Retinal incarceration in the present case probably occurred at the time of withdrawal of needle and prevented further retinal detachment. [ijo.in]

  A surgical procedure called vitrectomy is often used to treat holes that go all the way through the macula. The vitreous is removed to prevent it from pulling on the retina. It is replaced with a gas bubble that eventually fills with natural fluids. [medicinenet.com]

  Typical surgical procedures include: Laser surgery: Repairs tears in the retina that are the underlying cause of separation Cryopexy: Applies intense cold to the underlying tissue, causing a scar to develop that holds the retina in place Pneumatic retinoplexy [bausch.com]

• Macula

  A macular hole is a tiny opening in the macula, which is based in the middle of the retina at the back of the eye. [medic8.com]

  With age, the vitreous jelly is dried and begins to separate from the macula. This process usually takes place and does not affect the macula. [aban-eyeclinic.com]

  However, if the hole goes all the way through the macula, you can lose a lot of your central vision and therefore your detailed fine vision. A surgical procedure called vitrectomy is often used to treat holes that go all the way through the macula. [medicinenet.com]

• Contusion

  Eye contusions, perforations and blows in the eye. [icrcat.com]

  Avulsion of the vitreous base may be associated with dialysis and is considered pathognomonic of ocular contusion. [aao.org]

  Traumatic retinal tears without retinal detachment due to contusion-induced retinal tissue death or traction at the site of a vitreoretinal adhesion occur less frequently than dialysis following blunt trauma. [autoaccident.com]

  The frequencies of PVR after vitrectomy for perforations, ruptures, penetrations, intraocular foreign bodies, and contusions were 43%, 21%, 15%, 11%, and 1%, respectively, in a series of 71 patients from Doheny Eye Institute.[22] Other studies have reported [medscape.com]

• Blurred Vision

  You may have flashes and floaters in your vision for some time. Blurred vision usually resolves in a few weeks, but can last longer. Do not rub or press on the eye. [durbanretina.co.za]

  If there is associated vitreous hemorrhage (bleeding in the clear cavity of the eye) or retinal detachment, additional symptoms can include blurred vision or a shadow as if curtains are closing in from the peripheral (side) vision. [asrs.org]

  If aqueous fluid leaks into the hole this can cause blurred vision. Symptoms of a macular hole A macular hole is likely to affect central vision as this is generally controlled by the cone cells in the macula. [medic8.com]

  Therefore, if you have the sensation that something is in your eye, eye pain, redness, tearing and blurred vision, you should immediately contact your eye doctor. [kadrmaseyecare.com]

  Vitrectomy surgery, which involves removing the vitreous as well as peeling the ERM, is performed when the ERM is causing significant visual impairment. [visionaware.org]

  The visual impairment obtained with glasses and lenses and similar devices can not be compensated. [aban-eyeclinic.com]

  The "bubble" and the "buckle" both involve irritating the tissue around each of the retinal tears. [pacificeyecare.com]

  In the case of retinal detachment, treatment calls for irritating the tissue around each of the retinal tears. Cryopexy stimulates scar formation, sealing the edges of the tear. [surgeryencyclopedia.com]

• Confusion

  A chronic detachment may cause the retina to become very thin and can be confused with retinoschisis if not examined carefully. [autoaccident.com]

  A macular hole should not be confused with macular degeneration or a retinal detachment. [visionaware.org]

Not all retinal tears require treatment. When low-risk tears are identified in patients who have no symptoms, these tears can be observed without treatment. [asrs.org]

A prompt referral of the patient after globe perforation to a retina specialist is a must to achieve good visual prognosis. [ijo.in]

Prognosis[19] Several factors affect outcomes. [patient.info]

Treatment and prognosis If a retinal tear is diagnosed promptly before it progresses to retinal detachment, the prognosis is extremely good. Retinal tears are typically treated with laser or a freezing procedure (cryotherapy). [asrs.org]

The growth of connective tissue into the vitreous from the site of perforation may be an important factor in the prognosis of a detached retina resulting from this complication. [jamanetwork.com]

In case of perforations, there is a risk of infection, as a foreign body may remain inside the eye, thus leading to a worse prognosis. In most severe cases, the eyeball integrity may be endangered. [icrcat.com]

Etiological causes were revealed as myopia, peripheral retinal degeneration, pseudophakia, aphakia, trauma, and idiopathic. Etiological causes were not significantly different between the two groups (p>0.05, for all). [library.laredo.edu]
