Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is one of the most important pathologies within the retinal diseases that threaten the visual acuity. It may be complicated for any other retinal disease. One of them is vitreous hemorrhage. Vitreous hemorrhage may cause some difficulties either during diagnosis or treatment period. Vitreous hemorrhage may also lead to some treatment challenges as proliferative vitreoretinopathy and threatens visual acuity.

Objectives: To determine the frequency and severity of surgical Vitreo-Retinal diseases during COVID-19 lockdown period (LP) and compare it with same period last year. Methods: Single hospital based retrospective Cohort Study. Data of the patients that underwent retinal surgeries during the COVID-19 LP i.e., 23-03-2020 till 23-06-2020 and same period last year i.e., 23-03-2019 till 23-06-2019 was analyzed. Results: One hundred thirty-six eyes of 105 patients were included. Among these eyes, 48 (35.3%) were operated during the COVID-19 LP while 88 (64.7%) were operated during the same time last year. A decline of 45.5% (p=0.023) was observed in the frequency of surgeries during the LP. Mean age of patients during the LP was 43.2 ± 20.3 years compared to 48.4 ± 17.9 years last year. There was reduction in the surgeries for Diabetic Tractional Retinal Detachment (11.4% vs 4.2% during LP, p=0.166), Vitreous hemorrhage (10.2% vs 8.3% during LP, p=0.04), Full thickness macular hole (3.4% vs 0% during LP) and Epiretinal membrane (12.5% vs 0% during LP). While Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (27.3% vs 58.3% during LP, p<0.001) among other disorders had a higher proportion during the LP. Conclusion: The decline in the frequency of retinal surgeries during the LP is indicative of complex pathologies presenting later with more advanced disease. However, earlier presentation and an increase trend in surgeries for RRD during the LP shows the positive impact of free time on the health concerns of our population. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.37.7.4291 How to cite this:Awan MA, Shaheen F, Mohsin F.

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.

Abstract Background Patients presenting with macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) with concomitant age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and their treating physicians would benefit from knowledge regarding the visual prognosis after repair. The prognosis for such patients is not well known. The purpose of this study is to compare visual outcomes in macula-off RRD in eyes with AMD versus a group of comparison eyes without AMD. Methods This was a retrospective chart review of 1,149 patients. A total of 191 eyes met study criteria, 162 non-AMD eyes (controls) and 29 AMD eyes. The main outcome measure was postoperative visual acuity in control eyes versus AMD eyes, and this was compared using Fisher’s exact test. Results There was a statistically significant difference in postoperative visual acuity by AMD status, with those without AMD having a higher frequency of Count Fingers (CF), Hand Motion (HM), Light Perception (LP), or No Light Perception (NLP) vision (p = 0.023). More specifically 5.56% of non-AMD eyes and 3.45% of AMD eyes were 20/40 or better, 77.16% of non-AMD and 55.17% of AMD eyes were worse than 20/40 and better than 20/200, 10.49% of non-AMD eyes and 37.93% of AMD eyes were 20/200 or worse, and there were 11 eyes in the non-AMD group with CF, HM, LP, or NLP vision while there was only 1 eye in the AMD group with CF vision. Conclusions Though postoperative visual acuity was worse in the non-AMD group with a higher frequency of patients having final vision of CF, HM, LP, or NLP, this is not likely a clinically significant finding. Rather, it is a function of the difference in sample size and composition between the two groups. Importantly, this study suggests AMD patients can expect similar outcomes to non-AMD patients after RRD repair. Our study suggests that approximately 58% of patients with AMD can expect to maintain functional vision better than 20/200. We conclude that AMD patients can achieve functional vision after RRD surgery, similar to those without AMD. These findings may be helpful in guiding realistic expectations of AMD patients with RRD.
