Research Article: Recurrences and Macular Complications after Perfluorocarbon-Liquid-Free Vitrectomy for Primary Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment

Date Published: 2023-09-29

Abstract:
This study investigates factors associated with recurrent rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), macular complications, and visual outcomes after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) without perfluorocarbon liquids (PFCLs) for primary RRD.

Introduction:
Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a sight-threatening condition affecting a significant number of individuals, with an annual incidence of 10 to 20 cases per 100,000 population in high-income countries [1, 2]. Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) is a widely performed surgical procedure for RRD repair, with advancements in surgical techniques and tools leading to improved visual outcomes and long-term anatomical success [3].
