Purpose. To assess the outcome of sutureless encirlcing number 41 band and transscleral laser retinopexy in uncomplicated rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), using a wide-angle viewing system (WAVS) and chandelier endoillumination.Methods. Prospective intervention study included 30 eyes of 30 patients presenting with RRD of recent onset indicated for SB. All cases were treated by sutureless encircling number 41 band and transscleral laser retinopexy. Visualization was provided by the Resight WAVS and a single 27-gauge chandelier endoillumination. Anatomical and visual outcomes were evaluated.Results. The mean age of our group was 49.8 ± 12.3 years, and the mean duration of RD was 7 (0–50) days. Twenty-four eyes (80.0%) were phakic while the remaining 6 eyes (20%) were either pseudophakic or aphakic. The primary retinal reattachment rate was 83.3% (25 out of 30 eyes). LogMAR visual acuity improved from 1.3 (0.30–2.0) preoperatively to 1.0 (0.40–1.60) at first month (p=0.002) and to 0.70 (0.20–1.92) at third month (p<0.001).Conclusion. Sutureless encircling number 41 band with chandelier-assisted transscleral laser retinopexy is a safe and effective technique for managing uncomplicated RRD. It provides a high primary success rate while eliminating the complications of cryotherapy, sutures, and broad buckles.

Purpose To introduce a modified scleral buckling surgery using noncontact wide-angle viewing system and intraocular illumination in the treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) without proliferative retinopathy. Methods A modified scleral buckling surgery using noncontact wide-angle viewing system with a 25-G optic fiber through sclerotomy site was performed in 22 eyes of 22 patients with RRD. Twelve women and 10 men were included. The mean age was 49.23 ± 15.19 years. The mean refraction of myopia was -4 D (range -3 to -7 D). The mean duration of RRD was 6.64 ± 3.14 days. The preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) ranged from 0.02 to 0.8. Mean follow-up was 9.59 ± 2.24 months. Proliferative retinopathy was grade A in 8 eyes and grade B in 14 eyes. Results This surgery was performed successfully and retinal attachment was achieved in all eyes at the final follow-up. The postoperative BCVA increased in all eyes. No complication was encountered related to this technique. Conclusions This modified scleral buckling surgery brings a panoramic and upright view and easy surgical maneuvers. It may be an additional approach for the management of RRD.

Abstract Purpose: To demonstrate combined local dry vitrectomy and segmental scleral buckling for the treatment of partial rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) with local vitreous traction in patients at high-risk for proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). Methods: Seven eyes of 7 patients were retrospectively studied, including 3 retinal dialysis, 3 retinal detachment (RD) with peripheral retinal holes and 1 RD with giant tear. All patients exhibited local vitreous traction and a high risk for PVR. Dry local vitrectomy without regular infusion was performed to remove the vitreous traction. Viscoelastic fluid was injected into the vitreous cavity if needed. Segmental scleral buckling was performed accordingly. Demographic information, preoperative and postoperative complications, and outcomes were recorded. Results: The mean age of the patients at presentation was 22.43±14.28 years old. All seven patients obtained retinal reattachment after a single surgical intervention. Postoperative visual acuity was improved in all patients. None of them developed complications, except for temporary mildly increased intraocular pressure in 2 cases. Conclusions: Combined local dry vitrectomy and segmental scleral buckling is effective for patients of RRD with local vitreous traction. The technique avoids many complications associated with regular surgery and was minimally invasive to both the external and internal eye.

A 14-year-old boy who had ocular motility disorder which started 2 weeks following retinal surgery (scleral buckling) secondary to rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, was referred to the strabismus clinic. He had significant ocular movement limitations in adduction and elevation under general anesthesia. The forced duction test (FDT) was positive in both adduction and elevation. After buckle removal, FDT was negative. The eye was orthotropic without ocular movement limitation at final follow-up. In conclusion, FDT at the end of the scleral buckling procedure needs to be performed. It may prevent restrictive strabismus after scleral buckling surgery.

History Of

A longitudinal study was carried out in the vitreo-retina clinic of the National Institute of Ophthalmology andHospital (NIO&H) on 30 eyes of 25 patients who were treated with scleral buckle (SB) surgery during theperiod of October 2004 to September 2005 of either sex. The aim of this study was to determine the outcome ofSB surgery in Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). The main entry criteria for this study wereprimary RRD treated with SB and for which 12 weeks of follow-up were available. The eyes with proliferativevitreoretinopathy or with history of SB surgery, vitrectomy, posterior segment open-globe trauma orsignificant concurrent eye disease e.g. amblyopia, macular disease etc were excluded from this study. Overalltwenty-four eyes (80%) achieved retinal reattachment with one SB procedure (encircling or segmental); themedian 12-week visual acuity was 6/12. Three additional eyes (10%) achieved retinal reattachment with onevitreoretinal procedure; the median 12-week visual acuity was 6/9. Three eyes (10%) never achieved retinalreattachment despite one additional vitreoretinal procedure, and 12-week visual acuity was no perception oflight. It can be concluded that SB for primary RRD achieves anatomical efficacy and preservation of centralvision in the majority of eyes.Key words: Scleral buckle; Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment outcome.DOI: 10.3329/jafmc.v6i1.5987Journal of Armed Forces Medical College, Bangladesh Vol.6(1) 2010 p.21-24

Purpose: There are primarily two techniques for affixing the scleral buckle (SB) to the sclera in the repair of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD): scleral tunnels or scleral sutures. Methods: This retrospective study examined all patients with primary RRD who were treated with primary SB or SB combined with vitrectomy from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2015 across six sites. Two cohorts were examined: SB affixed using scleral sutures versus scleral tunnels. Pre- and postoperative variables were evaluated including visual acuity, anatomic success, and postoperative strabismus. Results: The mean preoperative logMAR VA for the belt loop cohort was 1.05 ± 1.06 (Snellen 20/224) and for the scleral suture cohort was 1.03 ± 1.04 (Snellen 20/214, p = 0.846). The respective mean postoperative logMAR VAs were 0.45 ± 0.55 (Snellen 20/56) and 0.46 ± 0.59 (Snellen 20/58, p = 0.574). The single surgery success rate for the tunnel cohort was 87.3% versus 88.6% for the suture cohort (p = 0.601). Three patients (1.0%) in the scleral tunnel cohort developed postoperative strabismus, but only one patient (0.1%) in the suture cohort (p = 0.04, multivariate p = 0.76). All cases of strabismus occurred in eyes that underwent SB combined with PPV (p = 0.02). There were no differences in vision, anatomic success, or strabismus between scleral tunnels versus scleral sutures in eyes that underwent primary SB. Conclusion: Scleral tunnels and scleral sutures had similar postoperative outcomes. Combined PPV/SB in eyes with scleral tunnels might be a risk for strabismus post retinal detachment surgery.

AbstractPurpose:To evaluate the outcome of scleral buckling surgery using a wide angle non-contact viewing system and chandelier endoillumination for per-operative fundus visualization in patients with non-complex rhegmatogenous retinal detachments.Materials and Methods:This was a prospective, interventional study carried out at the Department of Ophthalmology, Mayo Hospital Lahore over a period of six months. Non-probability convenience sampling technique was employed. Fifteen eyes of fifteen pati-ents underwent modified scleral buckling procedure for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment using a 25G Awh Chandelier (inserted into the sclera through the pars plana) and wide angle viewing system to view the fundus intraoperatively instead of the conventional Indirect Ophthalmoscope.Results:The mean age of the patients in this study group was 41.9 12.4 years. Out of fifteen patients, 13 had flat retinas postoperatively. Two patients had to undergo pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade due to development of retinal detachment secon-dary to PVR.Conclusion:Modified scleral buckling with the con-current use of a chandelier light and wide angle viewing system provides an easier and more convenient means of visualizing the fundus under panoramic viewing conditions intraoperatively.Key Words:Wide angle viewing system. Retinal detachment. Scleral buckling. Endoillumination.

Abstract Background: To evaluate the efficiency and safety of 25-gauge illumination aided scleral buckling surgery combined with intravitreal injection of hyaluronate for treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment Methods: This study was undertaken in a prospective, nonrandomized, and uncontrolled manner. Patients of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment were performed scleral buckling surgery with the aid of intraocular illumination and noncontact wide-angle viewing system. Hyaluronate was injected into the vitreous cavity to maintain intraocular pressure stable after subretinal fluid drainage through the external sclerotomy when necessary. Best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), intraocular pressure, fundus examination and complications were observed and recorded. Results: Twenty-eight consecutive patients (28 eyes) were enrolled. Subretinal fluid drainage and hyaluronate injection was performed in 12 eyes. The final reattachment ratio was 100%. BCVA increased after operation (P<0.001) and no significant difference was observed between preoperative and postoperative intraocular pressure (P=0.149). No iatrogenic retinal break, choroidal hemorrhage or endophthalmitis were observed. Conclusions: Endoillumination aided buckling surgery combined with intravitreal injection of hyaluronate could be an option for treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment especially for the cases of highly elevated retina.
