OUTPATIENT RETINAL DETACHMENT SURGERY: A PRELIMINARY REPORT
Retinal detachment surgery has been considered an inpatient hospital procedure requiring preoperative and postoperative hospitalization. In this pilot study, outpatient retinal detachment surgery was performed on sixteen patients and the results (100% success rate after an average follow-up of 8.3 months) were comparable or better than reported overall success rates for retinal detachment ...
متن کاملRetinal Detachment
Most retinal detachments are preceded by a posterior vitreous detachment (PVD), which causes traction on the retina and, potentially, a retinal tear. The liquefied vitreous can then seep under the retina, causing it to detach. Retinal detachments may initially be localised, but without treatment they may progress and lead to irreversible vision loss. Early recognition and prompt referral are th...

It occurs in about 1 in 10,000 people a year. METHODS AND OUTCOMES We conducted a systematic review and aimed to answer the following clinical questions: What a...

All RDs are accompanied by some loss of visual function but this will vary depending upon the type of detachment, its size, and retinal location, making it difficult to ascribe one set of symptoms to the condition (Box 71.3). Diagnosing RD is complex with many qualifications. Abnormal vision is the only reliable symptom of RD. But the types of abnormal vision are large and varied: light flashes...
متن کاملRetinal Detachment Types
Twenty-six eyes underwent urgent glaucoma surgery (trabeculotomy and/or trabeculectomy with mitomyocin C); 7 had documented perioperative complications (vitreous loss, vitreous hemorrhage, choroidal detachment). The diagnosis of RD occurred 6 to 16.7 years (mean, 8.1) after glaucoma diagnosis. In 24 eyes, the IOP was 10 mmHg at the time of RD diagnosis (it was this hypotony that raised suspicio...
