Purpose: To assess preoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings of foveal-splitting retinal detachment (RD) and determine postoperative outcomes.
Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent RD surgery over a 1-year period were included. Patients diagnosed with a detachment extending to the edge of the fovea on fundus examination (i.e., macula-On/Off) underwent macular OCT scanning. Visual acuity (VA) after 1 year of macula-On/Off, macula-On, and macula-Off eyes was compared.
Results: A total of 85 eyes were included, 8 of which had a macula-On/Off RD. On preoperative OCT, all macula-On/Off RD eyes had foveal detachment extending beyond the foveal center over a median distance of 632 µm. Mean VA of the macula-On/Off eyes had improved from 20/160 to 20/40 at 1 year postoperatively (p = 0.035). The preoperative VA of macula-On/Off eyes was significantly better than macula-Off eyes (p = 0.032) and lower than macula-On eyes (p = 0.004). At 1 year, the VA of macula-On/Off eyes was no different from that of the macula-On eyes (p = 0.320), and tended to be better than that of the macula-Off eyes (p = 0.062).
Conclusion: Preoperative OCT revealed a shallow RD extending beyond the foveal center in eyes with clinical foveal-splitting RD. These eyes, termed macula-On/Off RD eyes, had a preoperative VA between macula-On and macula-Off eyes, while their final VA was close to those with macula-On RD.

August 2021
Background And Objective: To assess the refractive outcomes in patients who underwent combined phacovitrectomy for retinal detachment compared to phacoemulsification and intraocular lens (IOL) implant utilizing newer swept-source optical-coherence-tomography (SS-OCT) biometry and determine the requirement of an adjustment factor for superior predicted refractive outcomes.
Patients And Methods: Retrospective study of 95 eyes: 52 eyes that underwent phacovitrectomy and 43 eyes with phacoemulsification only that served as the control group. Mean refractive error (ME) and mean absolute error (MAE) were used to compare the groups.

Retinal detachment can lead to severe visual loss if not treated timely. The early diagnosis of retinal detachment can improve the rate of successful reattachment and the visual results, especially before macular involvement. Manual retinal detachment screening is time-consuming and labour-intensive, which is difficult for large-scale clinical applications.

Purpose: In rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, the time between first symptoms and reattachment surgery is critical to prevent macular detachment. We explored which determinants discriminate between 'macula-ON' and 'macula-OFF' retinal detachments to improve timely treatment.
Methods: Eight-hundred patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment admitted for surgery at the Rotterdam Eye Hospital in the Netherlands were eligible to complete a questionnaire to explore the following determinants: (i) patient's delay and doctor's delay; (ii) patient-reported causes for delay; (iii) symptoms as early warning signals; (iv) patient's prior knowledge about retinal detachment; and (v) trait anxiety.
