Macular pigment deposits in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
نویسندگان
چکیده
This is a study of 20 cases of macular migration after operation for retinal detachment. The frequency of pigment deposits on the macula among the total number of operated detachments was 6.4%. The evolution of pigment migration depened on the form and type of the deposits. In some cases the pigment diminished or disappeared. In 6 of the 20 eyes with pigment migration puckering of the macula occurred 4 months or more after surgery. The improvement in visual acuity 6 months and more after operation was relatively less in the group with pigment deposits than in the group without pigment. In the former group static perimetry showed defects corresponding to the pigment migration.

Macular pucker after retinal detachment surgery.
To better understand postsurgical macular pucker in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, we reviewed a consecutive series of 277 eyes in 268 patients in whom retinal detachment had spared the macular area and in whom no preretinal membrane with distortion of the retinal vessels had been present preoperatively. Postoperatively, 17 eyes (6.1%) developed obvious macular pucker; 260 eyes (93.9%) did ...

متن کاملVisual recovery after scleral buckling for macula-off retinal detachments: An optical coherence tomography study.
PURPOSE To assess the postoperative macular reattachment through OCT3 in eyes treated with episcleral surgery due to macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, as well as to verify if there is a statistically relevant relation between the persistence of a subfoveal detachment and poor postoperative functional recovery. METHODS Twelve eyes of 12 patients who underwent episcleral surgery due...
متن کاملFull thickness macular breaks in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with peripheral retinal breaks.
Between 1975 and 1989, 11 eyes were treated for retinal detachments with both peripheral and full thickness macular breaks. Long term retinal reattachment was dependent on successful closure of peripheral retinal breaks. Direct treatment of the macular break was necessary in only one case, which redetached 3 months after vitrectomy. Vitrectomy is not the initial treatment of choice for uncompli...
