Abstract

A 65-year-old man presented with decreased visual acuity in the left eye for 1 month. The diagnosis of hemorrhagic retinal detachment (submacular hemorrhage), which was caused by idiopathic polypoid choroidal vasculopathy, was confirmed by the ultra-wide-angle fundus examination, optical coherence tomography, and B-ultrasound. A vitrectomy combined with an ophthalmic surgical robot-assisted retinal puncture and injection was performed. The recombinant tissue plasminogen activator was injected accurately by the ophthalmic surgical robot between the retinal nerve epithelium and retinal pigment epithelium through a micro-injection needle. During the 2-month follow-up, the subretinal hemorrhage was significantly regressive, the visual acuity of the left eye was improved from hand movement to 0.1, and no other complications were observed.
