Nd:YAG LASER PHOTODISRUPTION FOR PRERETINAL HEMORRHAGE DUE TO RETINAL MACROANEURYSM

Abstract

Preretinal hemorrhage due to a ruptured retinal macroaneurysm could be dispersed into the vitreous cavity with Nd:YAG laser photodisruption. It should be considered in the decision of Nd:YAG laser photodisruption that the visual increment may be limited in eyes that also have subretinal hemorrhage in the macula and that the hemorrhage beneath the ILM tends to remain longer than the subhyaloid hemorrhage.
