Background: We report a patient with a visual field defect after retinal reattachment by the encircling procedure for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. We confirmed improved ocular blood flow after relaxation of the buckle.
Case: A 24-year-old woman with a visual field defect appearing after an encircling procedure for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
Purpose: To investigate retinal microcirculation changes in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).
Methods: The tissue blood flow in the macular area was measured in 28 patients with RRD without macular involvement by scanning laser Doppler flowmetry before and after scleral buckling procedures. The mean blood flow (MBF) was calculated by the automatic full-field analysis program.
Purpose: To report a patient with ocular ischemic syndrome due to an internal carotid artery stenosis in whom we confirmed improved retinal blood flow noninvasively after carotid endarterectomy.
Design: Observational case report.
Methods: Retinal flowmetry.

Background: As laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) becomes the treatment of choice in the field of refractive surgery, postoperative rhegmatogenous retinal detachment has also begun to occur. However, since it has not been reported yet here in Japan, we report two cases of retinal detachment following LASIK with suggestions based on our experience.
Cases: A 34-year-old male(Case 1) and a 26-year-old male(Case 2) suffered from retinal detachment one month and eight months after LASIK, respectively.
