  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]

  Retinal Detachment and Macular Hole This photo exhibits a bullous retinal detachment with multiple retinal folds in a patient with amyloidosis. A macular hole accounts for the detachment (inset), as no peripheral retinal tears were seen. [entokey.com]

  There is also a giant retinal cyst inferotemporally (arrows). Chronic Retinal Detachment with Retinal Macrocyst A very prominent macrocyst was noted in conjunction with a low lying retinal detachment ( top row ). [entokey.com]

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

The treatment must also take aim at future traction development: hence the need to remove the anterior hyaloid face. [evrs.eu]

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]

Improved prognosis and surgical outcomes are seen with macula-on retinal detachments where the fovea is still attached 5. Macula-off, or central retinal detachments have worse initial visual acuity and prognosis. [radiopaedia.org]

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

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

Etiology Type of retinal detachment Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment Non-rhegmatogenous retinal detachment Tractional retinal detachment Exudative retinal detachment Mechanism Most common type Retinal tears → retinal fluid, which is formed by vitreous [amboss.com]

Retinal detachment is often associated with: retinal photopsia (flashes) visual floaters reduced visual acuity progressive peripheral visual field loss Etiology Retinal detachments are classified as rhegmatogenous, meaning caused by a tear (rhegma) in [radiopaedia.org]

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]

Prevention and Treatment If a retinal break or tear is detected before there is retinal detachment, laser or cryotherapy (freezing) to the retinal tear is often successful in sealing the tear and preventing a retinal detachment. [potomacretina.com]

Prevention Some underlying eye conditions are known to have a higher incidence of retinal detachment. In many cases, a laser treatment to weak or compromised areas of the peripheral retina may reduce the risk of retinal detachment. [retinaandmacula.com]
