چکیده

I believe this manuscript is well-written and informative. The setting of the manuscript concerning where this clinical investigation was performed, Nagoya, Toyama, or Baltimore, and which institutional review board approve this study were unclear. The author described significantly less incidence of postoperative retinal detachment after 360 prophylactic laser treatment. However, the information how the postoperative retinal detachment developed, where new retinal break located were upmost important. In the study of retinal detachment, the author compared two groups in the numbers of the retinal break whether single or multiple, but location of retinal breaks located at superior or inferior break, types of retinal breaks were not described.
