Importance: In-office suprachoroidal viscopexy (SCVEXY) is a relatively new procedure for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), but minimal information is available regarding outcomes and safety.

Objective: To report outcomes with in-office SCVEXY for primary acute RRD.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This retrospective case series was conducted at St Michael's Hospital in Toronto, Ontario, Canada from June 2023 to February 2024 among consecutive patients with primary acute RRDs who presented with retinal tears that were reachable with the current in-office SCVEXY technique in the temporal or nasal retina.

Article Synopsis
  • This study compares the primary reattachment rate (PARR) of two treatments, pneumatic retinopexy (PnR) and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV), for patients with a specific type of retinal detachment.
  • It included 162 patients, where PARR was shown to be similar: 88.2% for PnR and 90.9% for PPV, with PnR providing better visual acuity outcomes.
  • The findings suggest that PnR can be considered a suitable first-line treatment for select patients, as it yields similar reattachment rates while enhancing visual recovery.

Although there have been numerous innovations in the management of retinal detachment (RD) over the past decades, there is still limited understanding of the pathophysiological processes that take place before and after repair. Summarizing key concepts using animal studies may allow for a better assessment of common pre- and postoperative microstructural abnormalities in RD. We performed a systematic literature review on Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Controlled Register of Trials from January 1968 to January 2022, searching animal or human studies reporting retinal histologic changes following primary or induced RD.
