Posterior capsule rupture (PCR) remains one of the most common complications of cataract surgery and a major risk factor for poor visual outcomes. Cataract surgeries complicated by PCR and vitreous loss are managed with anterior vitrectomy at the time of surgery. However, the situation can be further complicated by dropping lens particles into the vitreous cavity necessitating a secondary pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Purpose: To compare the visual outcomes and risk of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) between eyes that required anterior vitrectomy (AV) alone for the management of vitreous loss and eyes that required AV and subsequent PPV for the management of dropped nuclear lens fragments (DNLF) following cataract surgery complicated by PCR in a tertiary care teaching hospital in Saudi Arabia. Methods: Medical records of patients in whom PCR occurred during phacoemulsification cataract surgery requiring AV or subsequent PPV for DNLF were retrospectively reviewed over a 6-year period from January 2016 to December 2021. Results: PCR occurred in 183 (2.3%) of 7757 consecutive eyes that underwent phacoemulsification cataract surgery during the study period. Seven eyes were excluded from analysis for missing data or short follow-up. Of the 176 eyes, 147 eyes (83.5%) were managed with AV alone, and the remaining 29 eyes (16.5%) underwent a secondary PPV for DNLF. After excluding eyes with pre-existing ocular pathology, final best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was similar in both groups with a mean of 0.32 logMAR (P = 0.99). Two of 147 eyes (1.4%) in the AV group developed RRD with poor final BCVA whereas none of the eyes in DNLF group developed RRD. Conclusion: The risk of RRD is lower in eyes that required PPV for DNLF than in eyes that were managed with AV alone following PCR during cataract surgery. The poor visual outcomes in eyes that suffered RRD underscore the importance of postoperative retinal examination and early detection of retinal breaks.展开更多

Retinal reattachment was achieved with a single operation in 47(95.9%) of 49 eyes. In two eyes (4.1%), retinal redetachment due to new breaks was successfully treated with reoperation using the 23-G TSV system. Mean logMAR visual acuity was 2.01±0.47 preoperatively and 1.3±0.5 postoperatively (P <0.001, Paired t -test). Mean preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) was 14.1±2.8mmHg. Mean postoperative IOP was 12.3±3.6mmHg at 1 day, 13.1±2.1mmHg at 1 week, 14.3±2.2mmHg at 1 month. Iatrogenic peripheral retinal break was observed in 1 eye(2.0%) intraoperatively. No sutures were required to close the scleral or conjunctival openings, and no eyes required convertion of surgery to 20-G vitrectomy. · CONCLUSION: Primary 23-G TSV system was observed to be effective and safe in the treatment of RRD.展开更多

The rhegmatogenous form is the most common and its management is exclusively surgical as soon as possible. This urgency becomes major and absolute when it occurs in a particular monocular vision. Purpose: To analyze the clinical forms of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), the results and the complications of their management in monophthalmic patients. Methodology: This was a retrospective and analytical study from June 2007 to December 2019. We included all patients who received a consultation for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. All patients were seen by at least two posterior segment specialists and all were operated on by the same surgeon. Results: 57 files (57 eyes) were collected with an average age of 44.71 years and a sex ratio of 7.14. The average consultation time is 40.80 days. Patients complained of decreased visual acuity in 96.49% of cases. We had myopia in 49.12% of cases and 91.23% of patients were phakic. Retinal holes were found in 31.58% of our patients and giant tears in 17.54%. The mean retinal detachment extension was 2.52 quadrants and the macula was raised in 32 cases. The average time taken to take charge was 10 days. Detachment surgery was performed in 42 patients with 100% anatomical recovery. Conclusion: Retinal detachment in one-eyed patient is a major ophthalmic emergency. Its management must not suffer from any delay. Post-operative outcomes are relatively similar between the internal and external pathways. In one-eyed patient, silicone can be left alone in the absence of complications.展开更多

Retinopathy is caused by a gap between the neurosensory retina and the retinal pigment epithelium, which severely damages the visual function of the patient. Therefore, early clinical discovery, prevention and selection of an appropriate treatment are important. This article reviews progress in the treatment of retinal detachment.展开更多

METHODS: Forty-two patients with traumatic annular CCD who had undergone ciliary body suturing were enrolled for complete ocular examinations, including visual acuity (VA), slitlamp microscopy, tonometer, indirect ophthalscopy and UBM. Comparisons of clinical features were performed among baseline and follow-ups, and the morphologic alterations on UBM images were analyzed between pre- and post-surgery. RESULTS: The mean intraocular pressure (IOP) was 5.54mmHg, and the median VA was 0.1 in traumatic eyes at baseline. The pre-surgical morphological features on UBM images consisted of supraciliochoroidal effusion (33.33%), multilayer splits (40.48%) and CCD with cyclodialysis cleft (26.19%). After surgery, the median VA was 0.4 at the final follow-up. IOPs were significantly increased, which the mean final IOP was to 10.36mmHg(P< 0.01). UBM images displayed complete reattachment in 40.48% of patients, partial reattachment in 50.00% of patients and 360-degree detachment in 9.52% of patients. Analyzing the prognostic factors, the significant factors were duration, VA at baseline, ocular laterality (P<0.01), gender, age and the presence of hypotonous maculopathy (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Ciliary body suturing is the optimized procedure for traumatic annular CCD. UBM is a useful equipment for diagnosis and monitoring post-surgical morphological changes. The periodical detection of TOP and UBM is necessary for the observation of surgical outcomes.展开更多

The collected variables consisted of age, date, gender, time of injury, time until repair, mechanism of injury, zone of injury, injury associated vitreous hemorrhage, trauma associated RD, post traumatic RD, aphakia at injury, periocular trauma and OTS in cases of OGI. RESULTS: Totally 102 patients with traumatic OGI with a minimum of 12 mo follow-up and a median age at of 48.6 y(range: 3-104 y) were identified. Final best corrected visual acuity(BCVA) was independent from the time of repair, yet a statistically significant difference was present between the final BCVA and the zone of injury. Severe trauma presenting with an OTS score Ⅰ(P<0.0001) or Ⅱ(P<0.0001) revealed a significantly worse BCVA at last follow up when compared to the cohort with an OTS score >Ⅲ. OGI associated RD was observed in 36/102 patients(35.3%), whereas post traumatic RD(defined as RD following 14 d after OGI) occurred in 37 patients(36.3%). OGI associated RD did not correlate with the OTS and the zone of injury(P=0.193), yet post traumatic RD correlated significantly with zone Ⅲ injuries(P=0.013). CONCLUSION: The study shows a significant association between lower OTS score and zone Ⅲ injury with lower final BCVA and a higher number of surgeries, but only zone Ⅲ could be significantly associated with a higher rate of RD.展开更多

We compared visual acuity(VA),intraocular pressure.(IOP),.and morphologic changes with UBM among the different surgical procedures at the presurgery and periodical follow-ups.Results:.The mean IOP was 6.62 mmHg, and the median VA was 20 / 200 at baseline..The mean final IOP was 11.03mmHg,.and the final median VA improved to 20 / 50..IOPs were significantly different in post-surgery compared with those at baseline(P=0.000) among the ciliary body suturing,cyclophotocoagulation, and cyclocryopexy groups. However,no significant differences were noted at each follow-up among the 3 groups(P>0.05). The post-surgical morphological figures consisted of complete reattachment, partial reattachment,and the complete detachment. Cyclocryopexy(71.4%), suturing(68.4%), and cyclophotocoagulation(63.6%) produced similar surgical outcomes of the complete reattachment based on UBM images.Conclusion:Prompt treatment and periodic follow-ups are necessary after traumatic CCD, based on accurate dimensions and configuration by UBM. The appropriate choice of surgical procedures is pivotal for an optimal outcome.展开更多

The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of subretinal fluid (SRF) after successful scleral buckle surgery for macula-off RD. Methods Twenty-eight eyes from 28 patients were included in this study. The patients underwent scleral buckle surgery combined with cryopexy for macular-off RD. After surgery, all eyes underwent thorough ophthalmologic examinations including slit-lamp biomicroscopy, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) test, and binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy. The BCVA prior to the operation, duration of RD, the duration of postoperative retinal reattachment, BCVA when SRF was observed, period required for the SRF to become undetectable, and the BCVA at the final follow-up were included in the clinical data for this study. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) and B-ultrasonography were used to confirm SRF, and fluorescein angiography (FFA) was carried out in several patients. BCVA when SRF was observed and BCVA at the final follow-up were evaluated using a paired t test. Correlations between BCVA before the operation and duration of RD and BCVA at the final follow-up were analyzed using the Pearson correlation test. The type of SRF under OCT and BCVA at the final follow-up were compared using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results Postoperative retinal reattachment was achieved in 1.0-7.0 days (average, (2.7±.2.1) days). After retinal reattachment, SRF was detected in all eyes by OCT 2 weeks postoperative, while B ultrasonography found no changes. The mean IogMAR BCVA was 0.35±0.27 at the time of the detection of SRF. The period for SRF to become undetectable ranged from 2.0 to 11.0 months (average, (6.3±2.3) months). The time of follow-up ranged from 24.0 to 36.0 months (average, (28.9±3.4) months). The mean IogMAR BCVA improved to 0.30±0.23 at the final follow-up, which was significantly different from the mean IogMAR BCVA at the time of SRF detection (paired t-test, t=3.82, P 〈0.05). Postoperative OCT images were classified into three categories. FFA was carried out in 10 eyes and revealed no leakage or strain in the lesions. BCVA before the operation was significantly correlated with BCVA at the final follow-up (r=0.56, P 〈0.05). No significant correlation was observed between BCVA at the final follow-up and duration of RD (r=0.23, P=0.22). One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed no significant difference between the type of SRF under OCT and BCVA at the final follow-up (F=0.21, P=0.81). Conclusions The presence of persistent SRF after successful scleral buckle surgery for macular-off rhegmatogenous RD may influence the BCVA or anatomic attachment. SRF was detected in all eyes by OCT at 2 weeks after the operation Residual detachment persisted for almost a year after surgery in certain patients. Fluorescein angiography revealed no leakage or strain in the lesions.展开更多

文摘Background: Cataract surgery is the most frequently performed surgery worldwide. Posterior capsule rupture (PCR) remains one of the most common complications of cataract surgery and a major risk factor for poor visual outcomes. Cataract surgeries complicated by PCR and vitreous loss are managed with anterior vitrectomy at the time of surgery. However, the situation can be further complicated by dropping lens particles into the vitreous cavity necessitating a secondary pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Purpose: To compare the visual outcomes and risk of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) between eyes that required anterior vitrectomy (AV) alone for the management of vitreous loss and eyes that required AV and subsequent PPV for the management of dropped nuclear lens fragments (DNLF) following cataract surgery complicated by PCR in a tertiary care teaching hospital in Saudi Arabia. Methods: Medical records of patients in whom PCR occurred during phacoemulsification cataract surgery requiring AV or subsequent PPV for DNLF were retrospectively reviewed over a 6-year period from January 2016 to December 2021. Results: PCR occurred in 183 (2.3%) of 7757 consecutive eyes that underwent phacoemulsification cataract surgery during the study period. Seven eyes were excluded from analysis for missing data or short follow-up. Of the 176 eyes, 147 eyes (83.5%) were managed with AV alone, and the remaining 29 eyes (16.5%) underwent a secondary PPV for DNLF. After excluding eyes with pre-existing ocular pathology, final best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was similar in both groups with a mean of 0.32 logMAR (P = 0.99). Two of 147 eyes (1.4%) in the AV group developed RRD with poor final BCVA whereas none of the eyes in DNLF group developed RRD. Conclusion: The risk of RRD is lower in eyes that required PPV for DNLF than in eyes that were managed with AV alone following PCR during cataract surgery. The poor visual outcomes in eyes that suffered RRD underscore the importance of postoperative retinal examination and early detection of retinal breaks.

Result: Forty-three cases of retinal detachment were identified, the mean age at time of cataract surgery for the RD cases was 57.3 ± 14.7 years (range: 4 to 96 years) and for the control was 69.8 ± 12.9 years (range: 9 to 75 years), p Conclusion: The study shows that risk of retinal detachment and the degree of myopia is linear up to 12.00 diopters of myopia then starting to decline, and the risk of retinal detachment is the highest in age group between 50 to 59 years.
文摘The pathogenesis of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment depends on three factors, namely, retinal rupture, vitreous liquefaction and traction causing the retina to separate from the pigment epithelium, among which retinal rupture is the most important. Retinopathy is caused by a gap between the neurosensory retina and the retinal pigment epithelium, which severely damages the visual function of the patient. Therefore, early clinical discovery, prevention and selection of an appropriate treatment are important. This article reviews progress in the treatment of retinal detachment.
文摘AIM:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Densiron 68 heavy silicone oil (HSO) tamponade for complicated retinal detachment(RD)in Chinese eyes.METHODS:Twenty-one eyes of 21 patients with complicated RD were included in this retrospective study.All patients underwent pars plana vitrectomy with an internal tamponade using Densiron 68 HSO.Anatomical and functional results and complications were evaluated,including retinal status,visual acuity(VA),intraocular pressure(IOP),intraocular inflammation,lens opacity,and HSO emulsification.RESULTS:Allthepatients were followed up for 3mo to1y(5.8±1.16mo).Retinal reattachment was achieved in 19of 21 patients(90.5%).VA improved in 18 of 21 patients(85.7%),from 1.93 logMAR(±0.48)to 1.52 logMAR(±0.45)(P=0.001).Postoperative complications included early dispersion of HSO in 7 eyes(38.8%),cataract in 10 of 18phakic eyes(55.5%),moderate postoperative inflammation reaction in 10 eyes(47.6%),and elevated IOP in 5 eyes(23.8%),all of which were controlled by medication or by surgery.CONCLUSION:Highanatomical and functional success rates can be achieved with primary vitrectomy for complicated RD by using Densiron 68 HSO;however,it should not be ignored that Densiron 68 HSO can cause some complications in the eye.
文摘AIM: To analyze the clinical features of traumatic annular ciliochoroidal detachment (CCD) with ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) images, to investigate the surgical outcomes of ciliary body suturing and the prognostic factors. METHODS: Forty-two patients with traumatic annular CCD who had undergone ciliary body suturing were enrolled for complete ocular examinations, including visual acuity (VA), slitlamp microscopy, tonometer, indirect ophthalscopy and UBM. Comparisons of clinical features were performed among baseline and follow-ups, and the morphologic alterations on UBM images were analyzed between pre- and post-surgery. RESULTS: The mean intraocular pressure (IOP) was 5.54mmHg, and the median VA was 0.1 in traumatic eyes at baseline. The pre-surgical morphological features on UBM images consisted of supraciliochoroidal effusion (33.33%), multilayer splits (40.48%) and CCD with cyclodialysis cleft (26.19%). After surgery, the median VA was 0.4 at the final follow-up. IOPs were significantly increased, which the mean final IOP was to 10.36mmHg(P< 0.01). UBM images displayed complete reattachment in 40.48% of patients, partial reattachment in 50.00% of patients and 360-degree detachment in 9.52% of patients. Analyzing the prognostic factors, the significant factors were duration, VA at baseline, ocular laterality (P<0.01), gender, age and the presence of hypotonous maculopathy (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Ciliary body suturing is the optimized procedure for traumatic annular CCD. UBM is a useful equipment for diagnosis and monitoring post-surgical morphological changes. The periodical detection of TOP and UBM is necessary for the observation of surgical outcomes.
文摘AIM: To elucidate the question of whether the ocular trauma score(OTS) and the zones of injury could be used as a predictive model of traumatic and post traumatic retinal detachment(RD) in patients with open globe injury(OGI).METHODS: A retrospective observational chart analysis of OGI patients was performed. The collected variables consisted of age, date, gender, time of injury, time until repair, mechanism of injury, zone of injury, injury associated vitreous hemorrhage, trauma associated RD, post traumatic RD, aphakia at injury, periocular trauma and OTS in cases of OGI. RESULTS: Totally 102 patients with traumatic OGI with a minimum of 12 mo follow-up and a median age at of 48.6 y(range: 3-104 y) were identified. Final best corrected visual acuity(BCVA) was independent from the time of repair, yet a statistically significant difference was present between the final BCVA and the zone of injury. Severe trauma presenting with an OTS score Ⅰ(P<0.0001) or Ⅱ(P<0.0001) revealed a significantly worse BCVA at last follow up when compared to the cohort with an OTS score >Ⅲ. OGI associated RD was observed in 36/102 patients(35.3%), whereas post traumatic RD(defined as RD following 14 d after OGI) occurred in 37 patients(36.3%). OGI associated RD did not correlate with the OTS and the zone of injury(P=0.193), yet post traumatic RD correlated significantly with zone Ⅲ injuries(P=0.013). CONCLUSION: The study shows a significant association between lower OTS score and zone Ⅲ injury with lower final BCVA and a higher number of surgeries, but only zone Ⅲ could be significantly associated with a higher rate of RD.

文摘Purpose: To determine the clinical features of traumatic ciliochoroidal detachment(CCD), and to evaluate the surgical outcomes.Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the records of 37 consecutive patients with traumatic CCD who underwent surgical procedures,.including ciliary body suturing,.transscleral cyclophotocoagulation,.and cyclocryopexy..A complete ocular examination was performed at pre-surgery and at periodical post-surgery follow-ups. We compared visual acuity(VA),intraocular pressure.(IOP),.and morphologic changes with UBM among the different surgical procedures at the presurgery and periodical follow-ups.Results:.The mean IOP was 6.62 mmHg, and the median VA was 20 / 200 at baseline..The mean final IOP was 11.03mmHg,.and the final median VA improved to 20 / 50..IOPs were significantly different in post-surgery compared with those at baseline(P=0.000) among the ciliary body suturing,cyclophotocoagulation, and cyclocryopexy groups. However,no significant differences were noted at each follow-up among the 3 groups(P>0.05). The post-surgical morphological figures consisted of complete reattachment, partial reattachment,and the complete detachment. Cyclocryopexy(71.4%), suturing(68.4%), and cyclophotocoagulation(63.6%) produced similar surgical outcomes of the complete reattachment based on UBM images.Conclusion:Prompt treatment and periodic follow-ups are necessary after traumatic CCD, based on accurate dimensions and configuration by UBM. The appropriate choice of surgical procedures is pivotal for an optimal outcome.
文摘Background After successful scleral buckle and cryotherapy for macular-off retinal detachment (RD), some patients have poor visual acuity without any clinically detected macular change, and the unsatisfactory postoperative visual acuity is difficult to explain. The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of subretinal fluid (SRF) after successful scleral buckle surgery for macula-off RD. Methods Twenty-eight eyes from 28 patients were included in this study. The patients underwent scleral buckle surgery combined with cryopexy for macular-off RD. After surgery, all eyes underwent thorough ophthalmologic examinations including slit-lamp biomicroscopy, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) test, and binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy. The BCVA prior to the operation, duration of RD, the duration of postoperative retinal reattachment, BCVA when SRF was observed, period required for the SRF to become undetectable, and the BCVA at the final follow-up were included in the clinical data for this study. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) and B-ultrasonography were used to confirm SRF, and fluorescein angiography (FFA) was carried out in several patients. BCVA when SRF was observed and BCVA at the final follow-up were evaluated using a paired t test. Correlations between BCVA before the operation and duration of RD and BCVA at the final follow-up were analyzed using the Pearson correlation test. The type of SRF under OCT and BCVA at the final follow-up were compared using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results Postoperative retinal reattachment was achieved in 1.0-7.0 days (average, (2.7±.2.1) days). After retinal reattachment, SRF was detected in all eyes by OCT 2 weeks postoperative, while B ultrasonography found no changes. The mean IogMAR BCVA was 0.35±0.27 at the time of the detection of SRF. The period for SRF to become undetectable ranged from 2.0 to 11.0 months (average, (6.3±2.3) months). The time of follow-up ranged from 24.0 to 36.0 months (average, (28.9±3.4) months). The mean IogMAR BCVA improved to 0.30±0.23 at the final follow-up, which was significantly different from the mean IogMAR BCVA at the time of SRF detection (paired t-test, t=3.82, P 〈0.05). Postoperative OCT images were classified into three categories. FFA was carried out in 10 eyes and revealed no leakage or strain in the lesions. BCVA before the operation was significantly correlated with BCVA at the final follow-up (r=0.56, P 〈0.05). No significant correlation was observed between BCVA at the final follow-up and duration of RD (r=0.23, P=0.22). One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed no significant difference between the type of SRF under OCT and BCVA at the final follow-up (F=0.21, P=0.81). Conclusions The presence of persistent SRF after successful scleral buckle surgery for macular-off rhegmatogenous RD may influence the BCVA or anatomic attachment. SRF was detected in all eyes by OCT at 2 weeks after the operation Residual detachment persisted for almost a year after surgery in certain patients. Fluorescein angiography revealed no leakage or strain in the lesions.
