Retinal Detachment
Conditions
Keywords
macula-off retinal detachment, scleral buckle, persistent sub-foveal fluid, postoperative postures, optical coherence tomography (OCT)
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether postoperative postures influence persistent sub-foveal fluid after scleral buckle surgery
Detailed description
In this study, we are to compare the difference of influence of two postoperative postures on the incidence and duration of persistent sub-foveal fluid after scleral buckle surgery for macula-off retinal detachment
Interventions
two postoperative postures: supine and temporal-lateral
Sponsors
Study design
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) * macula off * treated by successful scleral buckle surgery * recent onset with symptom within 1 month
Exclusion criteria
* with failed previous surgery * intraoperative or postoperative injection of long-acting gas * with other eye diseases than RRD
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| duration of absorption of persistent sub-foveal fluid after surgery | Time from the date of operation until the date of absorption of sub-foveal fluid determined by OCT. The estimated period of time over which the event (absorption of sub-foveal fluid ) is assessed is up to 1 year. | time interval from surgery to the date of disappearance of sub-foveal fluid on OCT |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| best corrected visual acuity | 6 months after surgery |
