Details and patient eligibility

About

Purpose:

To assess the functional and anatomical outcome of primary vitrectomy without scleral buckling for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) in highly myopic eyes with axial length over 30 mm.

Methods Design: Retrospective single center series. Setting: University Hospital. Patients: High myopic patients treated with primary vitrectomy without scleral buckling for a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.

Outcome measures: Anatomical success rate with complete reattachment of the retina without silicone oil tamponade and postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA).

Enrollment: 840 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 90 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers
