Abstract Background The recurrence of retinal detachment (RD) following rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a relatively common complication that threatens vision and needs further surgery. The purpose of this study is to investigate the risk factors and visual outcomes of recurrent RD following pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for primary RRD.Methods This was a retrospective follow-up of 343 eyes that underwent initial PPV surgery for primary RRD. Patients were divided into a recurrence group and a reattachment group. The main outcome measures included the causative factors, visual outcomes of RD recurrence, and the perioperative factors most affecting the recurrence of RD.Results After retinal reattachment, we observed recurrence of RD after PPV for primary RRD in 42 out of 343 eyes (12.2%) during the follow-up period. Most recurrence (69%) occurred within 6 months after surgery. Univariate analysis showed that the primary risk factor significantly associated with recurrent RD was the presence of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) ≥ Grade C ( P = 0.003). Logistic regression analysis showed that a PVR ≥ Grade C (odds ration [OR]: 9.421, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.432 - 56.39; P =0.020) was a significant predictor for the development of recurrent RD. The recurrence of RD resulted in a significant decline in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at the last follow-up visit compared with the reattachment group ( P =0.000). Eyes with PVR prior to primary surgery or at the diagnosis of re-detachment showed a worse final BCVA.Conclusions The presence of PVR ≥ Grade C was the predominant risk factor for the recurrence of RD. PVR prior to primary surgery, or at the diagnosis of re-detachment, limited the recovery of final visual acuity.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors and visual outcomes of recurrent RD following pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for primary RRD. Methods This was a retrospective follow-up of 343 eyes that underwent initial PPV surgery for primary RRD. Patients were divided into a recurrence group and a reattachment group. The main outcome measures included causative factors, visual outcomes related to the recurrence of RD, and the perioperative factors most affecting the recurrence of RD. Results After retinal reattachment, we observed RD recurrence after PPV for primary RRD in 42 out of 343 eyes (12.2%) during the follow-up period. Most causes of recurrence (69%) occurred within 6 months of surgery. Univariate analysis showed that the presence of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) ≥ Grade C was significantly associated with recurrent RD (P = 0.003). Logistic regression analysis further showed that a PVR ≥ Grade C (odds ratio [OR]: 9.421; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.432 - 56.39; P = 0.020) was a significant predictor for the development of recurrent RD. Compared with the reattachment group, the recurrence group exhibited a significant decline in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at the last follow-up visit (P = 0.000). Eyes with PVR prior to primary surgery, or at the diagnosis of re-detachment, showed a worse final BCVA. Conclusions Our analysis shows that the predominant risk factor for the recurrence of RD is a PVR ≥ Grade C. PVR prior to primary surgery, or at the diagnosis of re-detachment, was also shown to limit the recovery of final visual acuity.

Purpose. To investigate the vascular density of the optic nerve head (ONH) and macula using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in patients undergoing vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) and to evaluate associations with visual outcomes. Methods. Patients with RRD, successfully treated with a pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and a minimum three-month follow-up were included in this study. The vessel density (VD) of the ONH and peripapillary regions, foveal avascular zone (FAZ), foveal flow density (FFD), and parafoveal flow density (PFD) were evaluated using OCTA and compared to the fellow eye. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to determine correlations with visual outcomes. Results. Thirty-one patients with macula-off RRD were included in the study. Compared with the fellow eyes, eyes after RRD surgery had a lower peripapillary VD ( P < 0.01 ). No significant difference in superficial and deep FFD, PFD, and FAZ area was found compared to the fellow eyes. Postoperative peripapillary VD and baseline BCVA were significantly associated with BCVA three months after PPV ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion. Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment eyes successfully treated with PPV had lower peripapillary vessel density than fellow healthy eyes. Postoperative BCVA was related to postoperative peripapillary VD.

Introduction: Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a potentially blinding condition. Objective: To evaluate the anatomical and functional outcome of surgery of RRD. Materials and methods: A prospective study of interventional case series was designed including 50 consecutive patients with RRD in a tertiary level eye center in Kathmandu. The patients underwent scleral buckling (SB) or pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) according to the proliferative vitreo-retinopathy (PVR) changes. All the patients had at least 3 months of follow-up. The anatomical and physiological outcome measures were primary retinal reattachment and improvement in visual acuity respectively. The surgery was considered successful when there was attachment of retina after the first surgery. Results: The mean age of these patients at the time of presentation was 46.24 ± 19.82 years. Of 50, sixty-six percent of the patients underwent SB and 34 % underwent PPV. Primary surgical success rate was 88 %. While comparing the initial best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) with the final, 72% had an improvement, 12 % unchanged and 16 % had a deteriorated visual acuity. Conclusion: The visual acuity improves and the anatomical success rate is high in the majority of the patients after surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.

Purpose: To describe a surgical technique and report visual and anatomical outcomes after primary combined pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and phacoemulsification in patients with posterior segment intraocular foreign bodies (IOFBs) removed via the anterior chamber without enlarging preexisting sclerotomies. Posterior IOFBs are generally managed in a stepwise surgery consisting of phacoemulsification/lensectomy for traumatic cataract removal then PPV and removal of IOFB through enlarged sclerotomies. Enlarged sclerotomies may carry a significant risk of hypotony, vitreous hemorrhage, vitreous and retinal incarceration, and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy. Limited studies exist on long-term results of primary anterior segment removal of posterior IOFB combined with primary phacoemulsification. Methods: Medical records of consecutive patients who had ocular lacerations and posterior segment IOFB between October 2003 and June 2017 in a university hospital were reviewed. Patients who received a combined primary IOFB removal and phacoemulsification were included in the study. The postoperative evolution including visual acuity and complications were all recorded. Results: Thirteen patients (13 eyes) were included in the study. All patients were men, and the average age at presentation was 38 years. All IOFB were metallic, and their size ranged from 2 to 7 mm. All patients were operated within 24 hours of presentation. Six (46%) of the 13 lacerations were corneal, and 7 (54%) were scleral. Overall, 9 of 13 (69%) had a final postoperative best-corrected visual acuity equal to or better than 20 of 25. There were 3 (23%) postoperative complications of recurrent rhegmatogenous retinal detachment that occurred within the first postoperative year. Conclusion: Primary combined PPV and phacoemulsification with the removal of IOFB via the anterior segment is a safe and promising approach for repairing open globe injuries. Our results demonstrate the favorable prognostic benefit of this technique, which is recommended in cases with small corneal laceration and posterior segment pathology resulting from IOFB.

Abstract Aim To evaluate the primary anatomical success and visual outcomes in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) undergoing 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy (25g PPV) surgery in Pakistan. Method This is a five-year retrospective, interventional cohort study of 418 consecutive patients with RRD who underwent 25g PPV. Surgeries were performed by two experienced surgeons at tertiary care hospitals in Pakistan. Consecutive patients, who underwent 25 g PPV surgery as treatment for RRD between October 2013-October 2018 were included. We excluded patients who had a history of previous retinal surgery or who did not complete the 4-8 weeks primary outcome visit. Data was collected from the patient’s files by using a pro forma. SPSS version 23.0 (IBM SPSS Statistics, Armonk, NY) was used. A p-value of &lt; 0.5 was considered significant. Results We identified 452 patients through coding system of hospitals who underwent 25g PPV surgery between October 2013-October 2018. Secondary retinal surgery and incomplete follow up cases were excluded. A total of 441 patients’ files were reviewed for the study, out of which 418 patients met the criteria for final analysis. Males were in a higher number 284 (67.9 %). The average age was 49±15.8. In our study, 186 (44.4%) patients were phakic at the time of presentation. At 2 months follow up, the primary anatomical success rate was 87.1 %. Conclusions Surgical outcomes of RRD with 25g PPV surgery in our study were similar to the outcomes reported in the developed world. We propose a prospective multicenter national study to prospectively evaluate the risk factors for RRD surgical failure in the Pakistani population.

AIM: To evaluate the effect of vitrectomy combined with scleral shortening for eyes with myopic macular retinoschisis. METHODS: Thirty-seven patients with myopic macular retinoschisis who underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with scleral shortening were reviewed. Axial length (AL), the height of macular retinoschisis, the height of retinal detachment if existed, the diameter of macular hole if existed and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) were obtained. The preoperative and postoperative parameters were compared. RESULTS: At postoperative 24mo, the mean AL and height of macular retinoschisis were reduced significantly by 0.79 mm and 256.51 μm (t=8.064, P<0.0001; Z=-5.086, P<0.0001) respectively. In addition, the mean height of retinal detachment and diameter of macular hole were also reduced significantly by 365.38 μm and 183.68 μm (Z=-4.457, P=0.000008; Z=-2.983, P=0.003) respectively. Meanwhile, the postoperative BCVA was improved markedly (Z=-2.126, P=0.033). CONCLUSION: Vitrectomy combined with scleral shortening is an effective surgical method for eyes with myopic macular retinoschisis, whether or not macular hole and retinal detachment are present.

Aim. To compare the anatomic and visual outcomes of 25-gauge (25G), and 27-gauge (27G) transconjunctival sutureless pars plana vitrectomy (TSV) for the management of primary rhegmatogeneous retinal detachment (RRD).Design. A retrospective nonrandomized clinical trial.Methods. A retrospective comparative analysis of 62 consecutive eyes from 62 patients with 6 months of follow-up was performed.Results. Thirty-two patients underwent 25G TSV, and 30 patients underwent 27G TSV for the treatment of primary RRD. There was no significant difference in baseline demographic and preoperative ocular characteristics between the two groups. The initial and final anatomical success rates were 93.8% and 100% in 25G TSV and 96.7% and 100% in 27G TSV, respectively (p=1andp=1, resp.). Preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) (logMAR) was 0.44 ± 0.69 and 0.38 ± 0.61 for 25G and 27G TSV, respectively (p=0.73). The final follow-up BCVA was 0.07 ± 0.25 and −0.02 ± 0.17 for 25G and 27G TSV, respectively (p=0.16). The final BCVA was significantly better than the preoperative BCVA in both groups (p=0.02andp=0.002, resp.). Preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) (mmHg) was 13.0 ± 3.5 in 25G TSV and 14.3 ± 2.8 in 27G TSV (p=0.11). IOP did not statistically significantly change in both groups during the follow-up period (p=0.63andp=0.21, resp.).Conclusion. The 27G TSV system is safe and useful for RRD treatment as 25G TSV.

Purpose: To compare long-term clinical outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with intraoperative 360° laserpexy and pars plana vitrectomy combined with scleral encircling for the treatment of primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).Methods: This retrospective, comparative case study included 70 patients who had at least 1 year of follow-up after vitrectomy for primary uncomplicated RRD from 2015 to 2019. The patients were divided into two groups. Group I included 34 patients who underwent PPV + 360° laserpexy (LP), while group II included 36 patients who underwent PPV + scleral encircling (SE). Main outcome measures were the anatomical success rate, the functional success rate, final best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), and the incidence of post-operative complications. We also examined the long-term changes in axial length, corneal curvature, and refractive error before and after surgery.Results: LP and SE groups showed no significant differences with respect to the primary anatomical success rate (97.05% and 94.44%, respectively; p = 0.592) or the functional success rate (BCVA ≥ 20/40 at final follow-up; 82.35% and 77.78%, respectively; p = 0.635). Detachment reoccurred in three cases (one in the LP group and two in the SE group) because of proliferative vitreoretinopathy; both cases in the SE group had successful anatomical re-attachment after repeating the PPV procedure. Complications included post-operative epiretinal membrane and cystic macular edema, as well as increased intraocular pressure.Conclusions: Primary vitrectomy combined with 360° laserpexy has effectiveness similar to vitrectomy combined with scleral encircling in patients with RRD in long-term clinical outcomes.

Purpose. To investigate the outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with scleral buckling (SB) in treating eyes with an early recurrent rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (rRRD). Methods. This was a retrospective, interventional case series of 21 eyes with an early rRRD treated by PPV combined with SB. The significance of the associations between the variants before the surgeries and the final best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was determined. Results. The average age of the patients was 61.0 ± 9.6 years. A retinal reattachment was observed in 20 of 21 eyes (95.2%) after a single reoperation. The BCVA was 0.91 ± 0.90 logMAR units before the initial surgery and 0.94 ± 0.94 logMAR units before the reoperations, and it improved significantly to 0.49 ± 0.50 logMAR units after the reoperation ( P  = 0.016, P  = 0.002, respectively). The preoperative BCVA was significantly correlated with the final BCVA ( P  = 0.043, r = 0.445 before the primary surgery; P  < 0.001, r = 0.885 before reoperation). Conclusions. The reattachment of an early recurrent retinal detachment by PPV with SB is effective.
