    Scleral buckle advocates have stated that pneumatic retinopexy often causes PVR, but they manage “fish-mouthing” in scleral buckling with gas injection. This is not rational. [eyeworld.org]

In the present study of 517 operations, PPV treatment was performed in 65.8% and SB treatment in 33.9%. [onlinelibrary.wiley.com]

Patients were informed about the safety and efficacy of the treatment and provided their free and informed consent after discussing the risks and benefits of surgical treatment (pneumatic retinopexy, scleral buckle, and posterior vitrectomy). [scielo.br]

Treatment If the retinal detachment is diagnosed very early, it may be repaired with a laser treatment in a retina clinic. More advanced retinal detachments must be repaired with outpatient surgery. [retinaandmacula.com]

We identified no studies investigating the comparison of pneumatic retinopexy versus a combination treatment of scleral buckle and vitrectomy. [cochrane.org]

Prognosis Retinal detachments often cause some degree of permanent visual field or central visual acuity loss, even after successful retinal reattachment. [potomacretina.com]

Also look for features that might affect management and prognosis, such as coexisting vitreous hemorrhage and PVR. [aao.org]

Our results further highlight the poor prognosis of uveitic RRD and the need for improved management of such cases. References 1. [joii-journal.springeropen.com]

Epidemiology and Etiology All non-exudative and non-tractional RDs originate from a retinal defect. [reviewofoptometry.com]

Trauma seems to be the most likely a etiology in our case. We believe that this is the first case ever reported with simultaneous bilateral inferotemporal rhegmatogenous retinal detachment secondary to dialysis with multiple retinal breaks. [nature.com]
