Background: Simultaneous bilateral retinal detachment (RD) is very rare and its incidence has not been very well characterised.
Material And Methods: Retrospective review of RD cases treated at the Jules Gonin Eye Hospital between 1999 and 2010.
Results: Over the 11 year period, 10 patients (20 eyes) with simultaneous bilateral RD were identified (average incidence among RD= 0.
Background: The purpose of this study is to report the anatomic and functional results of primary 23 G vitrectomy using slit-lamp and non-contact 90 D lens for the treatment of pseudophakic rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
Patients And Methods: Pseudophakic eyes were operated by 23 G vitrectomy using slit-lamp and non-contact 90 D lens, internal subretinal fluid drainage, cryopexy and internal gas tamponade. The preoperative and postoperative characteristics were analysed.
Purpose: To assess the role of vitreoretinal surgery in maximizing treatment outcome following complications after proton therapy for uveal melanoma and to evaluate its safety.
Methods: Retrospective chart study on 21 patients (2% of a total of 1,005 treated by proton therapy between January 2003 and August 2007) who had developed a complication requiring vitreoretinal surgery. Mean/median total follow-up after irradiation was 43/43 months (range, 12-70 months).
Background: Although the surgical treatment of full-thickness macular hole is well established, the utility of pars plana vitrectomy in the treatment of lamellar macular hole (LMH) remains less clear. The purpose of the study is to report functional results of surgical treatment of LMH associated with epiretinal membrane.
Methods: Retrospective chart review of patients undergoing pars plana vitrectomy and peeling of epiretinal membrane and internal limiting membrane, with or without air or gas tamponade, for symptomatic LMH associated with epimacular membrane.
