Abstract

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of 25 G intraocular illumination assisted scleral buckling in the treatment of simple rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Methods Retrospective case analysis. Total of 37 eyes of 37 cases with simple rhegmatogenous retinal detachment from Feb. 2016 to Oct. 2018 in Zhengzhou Second People’s hospital were included in the study. All cases underwent 25 G intraocular illumination assisted scleral buckling. The follow-up period ranged from 6 to 12 months. Results Retinal reattachment occurred in 35 eyes (94.59%) after first operation. Preoperative visual acuity ≥0.4 in 2 eyes (5.41%) increased to 12 eyes (32.43%) postoperatively. The difference was statistically significant (χ2=8.810, P=0.003). Conclusion 25 G intraocular illumination assisted scleral buckling has unique advantages.Compared with traditional scleral buckling, the surgical operation is more intuitive and accurate for the treatment of simple rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
