INFLUENCE OF INTRAOCULAR TAMPONADE ON UNINTENTIONAL RETINAL DISPLACEMENT AFTER VITRECTOMY FOR RHEGMATOGENOUS RETINAL DETACHMENT

Abstract

In eyes with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment treated with vitrectomy and gas or silicone oil tamponade, retinal displacement may occur despite successful reattachment. Type of intraocular tamponade seems to influence the occurrence of retinal dislocation and its direction.
