Purpose: The aim of this study was to propose a simplified segmental scleral buckling (SSSB) technique that does not require break localization for less-experienced vitreoretinal surgeons.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective study compared the clinical results of 46 conventional and 23 SSSB (conventional segmental SB [CSSB] and SSSB, respectively) procedures in a tertiary referral retinal center in Taiwan between 2008 and 2019. In the CSSB group, breaks were localized during surgery.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated how the COVID-19 pandemic affected patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) at Farabi Eye Hospital in Iran, comparing patients from before and during the pandemic.
  • A total of 375 patients were analyzed, revealing that those referred during the pandemic had quicker referral and surgical wait times, but no significant changes in clinical characteristics or surgical outcomes.
  • The use of general anesthesia increased during the pandemic period, prompting the need for further research into this trend.

Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a severe condition that may lead to permanent vision loss if untreated. Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) has become a preferred surgical intervention, particularly in complex cases. Objective: Retinal displacement (RD) following PPV for RRD can lead to visual distortions and can negatively impact patient quality of life.

: Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a potentially blinding retinal disorder. RRD in the first eye is a well-recognized risk factor for bilateral RRD since risk factors that predispose to RRD affect both eyes. In this study, we assess the presenting factors that predispose individuals to bilateral RRD and evaluate the role of prophylactic retinopexy in preventing fellow-eye RRD.

Purpose: The factors that contribute to the progression of macular involvement in RRD have not been extensively investigated. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the association between the preoperative characteristics and macular status of the eyes with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).

Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study.
