Influence of the scleral indentation technique on the re-detachment rate following retinal detachment surgery
Key messages What we already know: Scleral indentation is widely recognized as an important step in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment surgery via pars-plana vitrectomy. There are several surgical techniques for scleral indentation, however the procedures are neither standardized, nor have they ever...

| description | Key messages What we already know: Scleral indentation is widely recognized as an important step in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment surgery via pars-plana vitrectomy. There are several surgical techniques for scleral indentation, however the procedures are neither standardized, nor have they ever been compared to one another to the best of our knowledge. What this study adds: This study shows that the rate of retinal re-detachment could be influenced by the indentation technique at the end of surgery favoring external indentation and internal visualization with an endoilluminator (chandelier light). We attribute this to the better visualization of the vitreous base facilitated by endoillumination. |
