چکیده

PURPOSE To report a case of Valsalva premacular hemorrhage treated by Nd:YAG laser. METHODS A patient who presented with Valsalva premacular hemorrhage was treated with photodisruptive Nd:YAG laser to drain the entrapped premacular blood into the vitreous. RESULTS After photodisruption, vision in the affected eye improved rapidly due to exposure of the macula. CONCLUSION Nd:YAG laser treatment may be a good alternative for recent preretinal hemorrhages. Clinical benefits include rapid visual rehabilitation and the avoidance of vitrectomy.

Photodisruptive Nd:Yag laser in the management of premacular subhyaloid hemorrhage.

PURPOSE Premacular subhyaloid hemorrhage is usually a benign condition that generally improves spontaneously and rarely causes visual loss. However, because the hemorrhage may cause permanent macular changes before it resolves, Nd:YAG laser posterior hyaloidotomy may be indicated in selected cases. This study investigated the effects of drainage of premacular subhyaloid hemorrhage into the vitr...
