Актуальность. Несмотря на высокую частоту прилегания сетчатки в результате эндовитреальной хирургии, острота зрения в 60% случаев остается низкой или улучшается незначительно. Цель. Оценка эффективности нейропротектора «Цитофлавин» в улучшении остроты зрения после эндовитреальной хирургии регматогенной отслойки сетчатки. Материал и методы. Основная группа наблюдения представлена 20 пациентами с низким зрительным прогнозом, которые получали препарат «Цитофлавин» в послеоперационном периоде (период тампонады силиконом и после удаления силикона). Контрольная группа наблюдения включала 20 человек с низким зрительным прогнозом, получавших стандартное лечение после операции. Критериями оценки эффективности проводимой терапии явились: МКОЗ, амплитуда прироста (АΔ), показателя микроциркуляции (ПМ, перф. ед.), индекса эффективности микроциркуляции (ИЭМ, отн. ед.) относительно исходных, рассчитанная по формуле. Результаты. Результаты исследования показали, что через 6 мес. после операции у пациентов основной группы по сравнению с контрольной МКОЗ выросла более чем в 2 раза (р<0,05). Также при терапии препаратом «Цитофлавин» отмечена более значимая активация хориоретинального кровотока. АΔ, ПМ и ИЭМ у пациентов основной группы исследования к 6 мес. после операции выросла в 2 раза и более (р<0,05), что подтверждает прямую зависимость зрительных функций от состояния и динамики восстановления хориоретинального кровотока. Выводы. При включении нейропротектора «Цитофлавин» в систему медицинской реабилитации пациентов с низким уровнем зрительного прогноза наблюдается повышение МКОЗ в 2 раза и улучшение циркуляторных показателей хориоретинального кровотока более чем в 2 раза.

Purpose. To study the effectiveness of extrascleral filling (ESF) using endoillumination in the surgical treatment of patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Material and methods. The material for the study was the data of a comprehensive clinical examination and surgical treatment by ESF method using endoillumination in 17 patients (17 eyes) with RRD. In 7 cases (41%), the macular area was involved in the detachment process. In 5 cases (29.4%), local scleral filling was performed. In the remaining 12 cases (70.6%), the local ESF was supplemented with a circling silicone element. Surgical intervention was supplemented by transscleral drainage of subretinal fluid (SRF) in 10 cases (59%) and pneumatic retinopexy with SF6 gas 50% in 8 cases (48%). Results. In the general group of patients, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) increased from 0.35 to 0.46. In the subgroup of patients with a detached macular area, the positive dynamics is more pronounced, BCVA increased from 0.1 to 0.28. The progression of proliferative vitreoretinopathy caused the recurrence of retinal detachment in two patients (11.8%). Recurrences were diagnosed after 3 and 5 months, respectively. In both cases, a vitrectomy with tamponade of the vitreous cavity with silicone oil 5000 Cst was performed. The percentage of successful anatomical outcome after the first operation in our study was 82%. The percentage of successful achievement of the final anatomical result was 94%. In two cases, additional injection of SF6 gas into the vitreous cavity was required. Conclusion. This type of surgical treatment is an effective method of surgical treatment of patients with RRD. In our study, the successful anatomical outcome after the first operation was recorded in 82% of patients, which correlates with the data of the authors who also used this method (83–92%). Surgeons who performed surgical treatment using this technique in our study note improved workplace ergonomics when visualizing the fundus using an operating microscope and endoillumination compared with indirect ophthalmoscopy. Other teams of authors came to this conclusion as well. In our study, there were no complications associated with the introduction of a light pipe into the vitreous cavity (iatrogenic crystalline lens injury, endophthalmitis), which indicates the safety of this type of surgical treatment.

Background/objectives: To compare the number of eye surgical procedures performed in Italy in the 2 months following the beginning of lockdown (study period) because of COVID-19 epidemic with those performed in the two earlier months of the same year (intra-year control) and in the period of 2019 corresponding to the lockdown (inter-year control). Methods: Retrospective analysis of surgical procedures carried out at 39 Academic hospitals. A distinction was made between elective and urgent procedures. Intravitreal injections were also considered. Percentages for all surgical procedures and incidence rate ratios (IRR) for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) events were calculated. A p value <0.05 was considered significant. Results: A total of 20,886 versus 55,259 and 56,640 patients underwent surgery during the lockdown versus intra-and inter-year control periods, respectively. During the lockdown, only 70% of patients for whom an operation/intravitreal injection was recommended, finally underwent surgery; the remaining patients did not attend because afraid of getting infected at the hospital (23%), taking public transportation (6.5%), or unavailable swabs (0.5%). Elective surgeries were reduced by 96.2% and 96.4%, urgent surgeries by 49.7% and 50.2%, and intravitreal injections by 48.5% and 48.6% in the lockdown period in comparison to intra-year and inter-year control periods, respectively. IRRs for RRDs during lockdown dropped significantly in comparison with intra- and inter-year control periods (CI: 0.65–0.80 and 0.61–0.75, respectively, p < 0.001 for both). Conclusion: This study provides a quantitative analysis of the reduction of eye surgical procedures performed in Italy because of the COVID-19 epidemic.
