PROPHYLACTIC LASER TREATMENT TO DECREASE THE INCIDENCE OF RETINAL DETACHMENT IN FELLOW EYES OF IDIOPATHIC GIANT RETINAL TEARS
摘要： To evaluate the effectiveness of prophylactic 360° laser treatment in the fellow eye of patients with unilateral idiopathic giant retinal tear (GRT) to prevent the occurrence of a (macula-off) retinal detachment. We conducted a retrospective, nonrandomized case–control study. Clinical data of consecutive patients, undergoing surgery for idiopathic GRT, between 2003 and 2015 were analyzed. The data collected included GRT, retinal detachment, and RTs in the fellow eye. We included 129 patients who underwent surgery for an idiopathic GRT, with a mean follow-up period of 107 months. In the observation group, a retinal detachment developed in the fellow eye in 22/51 patients (43.1%), leading to a macula-off detachment in 9/51 patients (17.6%). By contrast, in the prophylactic 360° laser group, only 10/78 (12.8%) patients developed a retinal detachment, leading to a macula-off detachment in 1/78 patient (1.3%). This difference was statistically signi?cant. This study suggests that prophylactic 360° laser treatment in the fellow eye of patients with an idiopathic GRT decreased the incidence of retinal detachment, lowering the high risk of visual loss due to a macula-off retinal detachment.

MANAGEMENT OF GIANT RETINAL TEARS USING TRANSSCLERAL DIODE LASER RETINOPEXY AND SHORT-TERM POSTOPERATIVE TAMPONADE WITH PERFLUORO-N-OCTANE
摘要： To determine the results of pars plana vitrectomy for giant retinal tear detachments using transscleral diode laser retinopexy and short-term postoperative tamponade with perfluoro-n-octane (PFnO). Twenty consecutive patients with fresh giant retinal tears were enrolled in a single-arm prospective study. One case was withdrawn for technical reasons. The remainder all underwent pars plana vitrectomy, PFnO injection, transscleral diode laser retinopexy to the edge of the giant retinal tear, and short-term postoperative heavy liquid tamponade. None of the cases had scleral buckling or lensectomy. Nineteen cases (18 male and 1 female) with a mean age of 41 years (range 10–69 years) were followed up for a period of 6 months. Postoperative tamponade with PFnO was maintained for a mean of 7.6 days (range 4–21 days), after which it was exchanged for sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), perfluoropropane (C3F8) gas, or balanced salt solution. Final reattachment rate was 100%, with 3 (15.7%) patients requiring additional surgery. Best-corrected visual acuity at final follow-up was 20/40 or better in 11 eyes (58%), between 20/60 and 20/200 in 7 (37%), and 20/400 in 1 (5%). In this series of acute giant retinal tears, transscleral diode laser retinopexy together with the use of PFnO for short-term postoperative tamponade achieved excellent anatomical and visual results.

FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH THE USE OF 360-DEGREE LASER RETINOPEXY DURING PRIMARY VITRECTOMY WITH OR WITHOUT SCLERAL BUCKLE FOR RHEGMATOGENOUS RETINAL DETACHMENT AND IMPACT ON SURGICAL OUTCOMES (PRO STUDY REPORT NUMBER 4)
摘要： To determine factors associated with 360-degree laser retinopexy (360LR) during primary pars plana vitrectomy ± scleral buckle for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) and its impact on surgical outcomes. This is a multicenter, retrospective, interventional study. Patients undergoing primary pars plana vitrectomy or primary pars plana vitrectomy + scleral buckle for non-complex primary RRD in 2015 were evaluated. Primary outcomes were single surgery anatomical success (SSAS) and final anatomical success. Secondary outcomes included final logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution visual acuity, epiretinal membrane formation, cystoid macular edema development, and number of subsequent vitrectomies. Multivariate regressions were performed. Two thousand two hundred and forty-eight surgeries by 61 surgeons were included; of which, 516 underwent 360LR. Younger age (P = 0.01), more retinal breaks (P = 0.01), more extensive RRD (P , 0.001), and surgeon ID (P , 0.001) were significantly associated with 360LR. No significant associations between 360LR and single surgery anatomical success (P = 0.44), epiretinal membrane formation (P = 0.14), cystoid macular edema development (P = 0.28), or number of subsequent vitrectomies (P = 0.41) were found. Controlling for case complexity, 360LR was significantly associated with lower final anatomical success (P , 0.001) and worse final logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution visual acuity (P , 0.001). Multiple factors influenced whether 360LR was performed during primary pars plana vitrectomy ± scleral buckle for RRD. However, 360LR was not associated with improved surgical outcomes, and in fact, it may be associated with poorer outcomes.

Comparison of Nd:YAG laser (532 nm green) vs diode laser (810 nm) photocoagulation in the treatment of retinopathy of prematurity: an evaluation in terms of complications
摘要： Purpose To compare the anterior and posterior segment complications of diode (810 nm) laser photocoagulation (LPC) and Nd:YAG (532 nm green) LPC in the treatment of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Patients and methods The 84 eyes of 43 patients treated with diode LPC (group 1) and 58 eyes of 31 patients treated with Nd:YAG LPC (group 2) for ROP in our clinic were enrolled in the study. Medical records of all patients were investigated retrospectively. The patients in each group were examined in terms of birth weights, gestational weeks, stage of retinopathy, number of lasers pots, laser parameters, and anterior and posterior complications of LPC. Results The mean birth weeks of group 1 patients were postmenstrual 27.7 ± 2.5 (23–33), while the mean birth weights were 1006.0 ± 334.5 (540–1980) grams. The mean birth weeks of group 2 patients were postmenstrual 27.4 ± 2.6 (23–33), while the mean birth weights were 1073.8 ± 329.2 (480–1720) grams. The mean numbers of laser spots were 1036.0 ± 515.2 (430–2410) in group 1 per eye, while the mean numbers of laser spots were 1085.4 ± 526.0 (445–2530) in group 2 per eye (p ≥ 0.05). Additional laser application was performed in four eyes (4.8%) in group 1 and four eyes (6.9%) in group 2. Four eyes (4.8%) treated with diode LPC and one eye (1.7%) treated with Nd:YAG laser developed retinal detachment. Two eyes of a patient (3.4%) applied Nd:YAG LPC developed cataract. Conclusion Cataract may develop when Nd:YAG laser is used; however, posterior segment complications may be more likely to appear with the use of diode laser in these cases.

<p>Fortified Barrier Laser On The Vitreous Base In Vitrectomy For Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment</p>
摘要： Purpose: To investigate the efficacy of fortified barrier laser (FBL) on the vitreous base in vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Patients and methods: This was a retrospective study of patients who underwent vitrectomy for RRD without proliferative vitreoretinopathy. Barrier laser was applied as 3–4 rows surrounding the break at the end of fluid-air exchange. For the FBL, 3–4 rows of laser burn were additionally made about 0.5 clock-hour long adjacent to the break along the posterior border of the vitreous base. The primary outcome was single surgery success rate (SSSR) between two groups: FBL and conventional barrier laser (CBL) groups. Results: Overall, 118 eyes were included; 50 eyes in the FBL group and 68 eyes in the CBL group. SSSR was 100% (50/50) in the FBL group and 91.2% (62/68) in the CBL group with a significant difference (p=0.038). Four eyes of the recurrent cases in the CBL group were related to reopening of the break. All eyes achieved reattachment, and no differences were found in postoperative visual acuity at 6 months. Conclusion: FBL on the vitreous base was efficacious in improving the anatomical success rate of vitrectomy.

Relationships between retinal break locations and the shapes of the detachments
摘要： Purpose: Detecting primary breaks and confirming detachment preoperatively are important. Lincoff stated that retinal detachments progress according to gravity; his law has become popular. We evaluated Lincoff’s law with a slight modification to determine whether it remains suitable for present cases independent of refractive error and previous cataract surgery. Patients and methods: Group 1 included superior region detachments not exceeding the 12 o’clock midline; the original break was within 1 1/2 clock hours of the highest detachment border. Group 2 included shallow inferior detachment; the original break corresponded to the more spread side of the 6 o’clock midline. Group 3 detachments were beyond 12 o’clock; the original break was within a triangle with a 12 o’clock apex (A) or within 1 1/2 hours of 12 o’clock (B); (A) and (B) were stated in the original report. Another five classifications were applied for small numbers of detachments. Consecutive initial rhegmatogenous retinal detachment surgery patients were included; medical records and detachment charts were examined. Eyes were classified into categories and rates were calculated. Eyes that had never undergone previous cataract surgery besides those in which the macula remained attached were divided into groups at a –6 D cutoff (Groups 1, 2, and 3[B]); we compared groups in each category. We compared phakic eyes, pseudophakic eyes, and eyes ruptured at the posterior capsule (Groups 1, 2, and 3[B]). Results: Finally, 747 eyes were categorized. In Groups 1, 2, 3(A), and 3(B), corresponding rates were 92, 86, 70, and 89%, respectively. Between the above and below -6 D groups, there was no significant difference in rate in any category. There were no significant differences between phakic, pseudophakic, and ruptured eyes. Conclusion: Lincoff’s law was suitable for the present cases and independent of refractive error and previous cataract surgery.

Modified Vitrectomy Technique for Phakic Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment with Intermediate Break
摘要： Purpose. To evaluate the effects of a modification of the traditional 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy technique in the treatment of uncomplicated macula-on rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) with intermediate retinal break(s) and marked vitreous traction in the phakic eye. Methods. Prospective, noncomparative, and interventional case series. All consecutive phakic eyes with primary uncomplicated macula-on RRD with intermediate retinal break(s) and marked vitreous traction, with at least 1 year of postoperative follow-up, were enrolled. In all eyes, “localized 25-gauge vitrectomy” under air infusion with localized removal of the vitreous surrounding the retinal break(s), in association with laser photocoagulation and air tamponade, was performed. The primary end point was the rate of primary retinal attachment. Secondary end points were cataract progression and assessed by digital Scheimpflug lens photography (mean change of nuclear density units) and the rate of complications. Results. Thirty-two phakic eyes were included in the final analysis. At 12 months, the primary outcome of anatomical success was achieved in 94% of eyes. The mean nuclear density units did not change significantly at any time point during the follow-up. After localized vitrectomy, one eye developed an epiretinal membrane, and one eye developed cystoid macular edema; no other significant complications were reported. Conclusions. “Localized vitrectomy” has a high anatomical success rate in phakic eyes with primary uncomplicated macula-on RRD with intermediate retinal break(s) and marked vitreous traction, without causing progression of cataract.

Sonography in acute ocular pathology: a kaleidoscopic view
摘要： Ocular emergencies contribute to a large proportion of ocular pathologies. These may even be organ-threatening diseases such as central retinal artery and vein occlusion or globe rupture. Conventional physical examination may not always be feasible in emergency situations but decision-making in time is critical in the interest of patient in few of these conditions. Sonography in this setting plays an important role, allowing real-time, quick and dynamic evaluation. Common acute ocular pathologies such as retinal detachment, lens dislocation and globe rupture can be easily diagnosed by ultrasound. Vascular lesions can be identified using Doppler. This article illustrates the sonographic appearance in traumatic and non-traumatic acute ocular pathologies.

Disturbed interhemispheric functional connectivity in visual pathway in individuals with unilateral retinal detachment: A resting state fMRI study
摘要： Previous neuroimaging studies demonstrated that retinal detachment (RD) subjects were associated with abnormal spontaneous brain activities; however, whether the altered interhemispheric functional connectivity (FC) occurred in RD patients remains unknown. The current study tried to explore the alternations of interhemispheric FC of the whole brain in unilateral RD patients using the voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC) method and their connections to clinical features. Methods: We recruited 30 patients with RD (16 males and 14 females) and 30 healthy controls (HCs) (16 males and 14 females) whose age and sex were closely matched. All subjects underwent the rs-fMRI scans. The VMHC method was applied to directly assess the hemispheres’ functional interaction. The VMHC in these brain areas, which could be used as biomarkers to differentiate RD from HC, was identified by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses. The relations between these patients’ clinical features and their mean VMHC signal values in multiple brain regions were calculated by Pearson correlation analysis. Results: RD patients had significantly lower VMHC values than HCs in the bilateral occipital lobe (Brodmann areas, BA 18), bilateral superior temporal gyrus (BA 39), and bilateral cuneus (BA 19). Moreover, the mean VMHC signal values of the bilateral cuneus were in positive correlation with the duration of the RD (r = 0.446, P = 0.013). Conclusion: Our results provided an evidence of disturbed interhemispheric FC in the visual area occurred in RD patients, which might provide some useful information to understand the neural mechanism of RD patients with acute vision loss. Furthermore, the VMHC values might indicate the progress of the RD.

Validation of sensor for postoperative positioning with intraocular gas
摘要： Purpose: Surgical repair of retinal attachment or macular hole frequently requires intraocular gas. This necessitates specific postoperative positioning to improve outcomes and avoid complications. However, patients struggle with correct positioning. We have developed a novel sensor to detect the position of the gas bubble in the eye and provide feedback to patients in real time. In this paper, we determine the specificity and sensitivity of our sensor in vitro using a model eye. Methods: We assessed the reliability of our sensor to detect when a gas bubble has deviated off a model retinal break in a model eye. Various bubble sizes representing the intraocular kinetics of sulfur hexafluoride gas and varying degrees of deviation from the correct position were tested using the sensor attached to a mannequin head with a model eye. Results: We recorded 36 data points. The sensor acted appropriately in 33 (91.7%) of them. The sensor triggered the alarm every time the bubble deviated off the break (n=15, sensitivity =100%). However, it triggered the alarm (falsely) 3/21 times when the bubble was correctly positioned over the retinal break (specificity =86%). Conclusion: Our device shows excellent sensitivity (100%) and specificity (86%) in detecting whether intraocular gas is tamponading a retinal break in a model eye.
