Purpose: To evaluate corneal visco-elasticity and intraocular pressure (IOP) changes measured by an Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA) after scleral buckling Methods: Fifty-six eyes with history of scleral buckling surgery three months ago were included in the study. Corneal hysteresis (CH), corneal resistance factor (CRF), corneal-compensated IOP (IOPcc) and Goldmann-correlated IOP (IOPg) were mea...

come clinically visible, resulting in the blue appearance of the sclera. We report the treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in 4 eyes of 3 patients with OI. Scleral buckling surgery, pneumatic retinopexy, and primary vitrectomy are the standards for repair of uncomplicated rhegmatogenous retinal detachments. In patients with OI, however, the thin sclera provides an increased risk of s...

PURPOSE To compare the anatomical and visual outcomes of three different scleral buckling techniques and to explore the effect of cryotherapy and subretinal fluid drainage (SRFD) on outcomes of surgery. METHODS This retrospective study was performed on 111 eyes of 109 patients undergoing scleral buckling for rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRDs) by a single surgeon. Pre-, intra- and posto...

introduction: there are different methods to repair retinal detachment. in this trial the retinopexy in repairmen of retinal regmatogenesis rd is compared with other methods in qazvin teaching hospitals during 1993-2003. methods: this out come study was conducted on 47 patients with s/b and retinal break cryopexy (group i) , 30 patients undergoing s/b with barrier laser photocoagulation around ...

OBJECTIVE To determine the relation between retinal tears and scleral ectasia. DESIGN Prospective study. SETTING University-based referral practice in Montreal. PATIENTS Fifty-seven consecutive patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachments undergoing scleral buckling surgery. Patients with a history of trauma or previous cryotherapy, laser treatment or other vitreoretinal proce...

The aim of this study was to investigate the outcomes of one "8"-shaped scleral suture of minimal scleral buckling (MSB) surgery without sub-retinal drainage for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) treatment. Thirty patients (30 eyes) with RRD were recruited. Thirty eyes with RRD were repaired by one "8"-shaped scleral suture of minimal buckling without subretinal drainage by one surgeon. T...

purpose : to evaluate corneal visco-elasticity and intraocular pressure (iop) changes measured by an ocular response analyzer (ora) after scleral buckling methods : fifty-six eyes with history of scleral buckling surgery three months ago were included in the study. corneal hysteresis (ch), corneal resistance factor (crf), corneal-compensated iop (iopcc) and goldmann-correlated iop (iopg) were m...

PURPOSE A prospective study was performed to investigate changes in corneal shape and axial length following scleral buckling surgery. METHODS We investigated the changes in corneal shape, refraction, and axial length following scleral buckling surgery in 24 patients who underwent local buckling and 14 patients who underwent encircling with additional segmental buckling. The corneal shape was...
