Serous retinal detachment is a rare complication occurring in less than 1% of patients with eclampsia. We here report such a case. We strongly recommend the need for an eye check up in all patients of pregnancy induced hypertension especially in community based setup.

Purpose Leukemias can involve almost every part of the human eye. Ophthalmic manifestations of leukemias can be divided into direct infiltration, secondary vascular changes and neuro-ophthalmological changes. Our case presented with exudative retinal detachment mimicking Vogt Koyanagi Harada's disease (VKH). Observations A 30-years old Asian (Indian) female presented with insidious onset of p...

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 ...
