Preliminary clinical observation on the treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with foldable capsule buckle at a distance of ≥ 15 mm from the edge of the corneal membrane
Journal Title: Eye Science (Yanke Xuebao) - Year 2023, Vol 38, Issue 8
Abstract
[Objective:] To preliminarily evaluate the effectiveness, safety and surgical operability of foldable capsule buckle (FCB) in the treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). [Methods:] It is a prospective clinical case study. Ten patients (10 eyes), with a distance of ≥ 15 mm from the posterior margin of the angular membrane at the location of the fissure, who underwent FCB implantation surgery for RRD at Jinan Mingshui Eye Hospital from March 2020 to September 2021 were enrolled. The surgical outcome was evaluated by B-ultrasound, fundus photography and optical coherence tomography (OCT). The surgical efficacy and safety were evaluated by the postoperative complications, such as FCB exposure, diplopia, rejection, and eye movement limitation. [Results:] The mean follow-up time was 1 year (6 months to 2 years). Retinal reattachment was evaluated by B-ultrasound, fundus photography and OCT after operation in 10 patients. One patient with macular retinal detachment had improved visual acuity. 9 patients developed diplopia after operation, but diplopia disappears in 1-3 months after operation. One patient still had diplopia 4 months after operation, and FCB was removed 4 months after operation. No retinal detachment occurred after operation, and the symptoms of diplopia disappeared. [Conclusion:] It is confirmed by this preliminary research that the implantation of the foldable capsule buckle is safe, effective to treat rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with a relatively posterior position (≥15 mm from the back of the corneal limbus) with little damage to the ocular and easy to operate, compared with the difficulty and complexity in traditional scleral buckling surgery.
