    Long-term Complications of Conventional and Chandelier-Assisted Scleral Buckle for Primary Repair of Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment
    (Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications, 2022) Ilhan, Cagri; Citirik, Mehmet; Dulger, Selda Celik; Ozdemir, Mesut
    Purpose: To compare the outcomes of conventional indirect ophthalmoscopy and wide-angled visualization with chandelier endo-illumination methods in scleral buckle surgery by focusing on postoperative complications in the postoperative long-term period.Methods: In this retrospective comparative study, patients who underwent scleral buckle surgery due to rhegmatogenous retinal detachment were included in the study. Conventional scleral buckle surgery using indirect ophthalmoscopy was performed in Group 1, and wide-angled visualization with chandelier endo-illumination method in scleral buckle surgery was performed in Group 2. The outcomes of the two methods were compared.Results: The demographic and baseline clinical characteristics of the groups were similar (P > 0.05, for all). The mean follow-up time was 70.47 +/- 20.32 weeks (52-116) in Group 1 and 64.89 +/- 18.12 weeks (52-100) in Group 2 (P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in the mean postoperative best-corrected visual acuity and redetachment rates of the groups (P > 0.05, for both). The cumulative rate of postoperative complications was more frequent in Group 1 (P = 0.011) despite being not significant in one-by-one comparison of the complications including epiretinal membrane, proliferative vitreoretinopathy, glaucoma, cystoid macular edema, foveal atrophy, gaze restriction, and macular hole (P > 0.05, for all).Conclusion: Using wide-angled visualization with chandelier endo-illumination in scleral buckle surgery, favorable surgical outcomes can be achieved in the postoperative long-term period with fewer complications.

    Non-damaging retinal laser therapy in chronic central serous chorioretinopathy
    (Springer, 2023) Ilhan, Cagri; Citirik, Mehmet; Ozdemir, Mesut
    PurposeTo investigate the functional and anatomical outcomes of non-damaging retinal laser therapy (NRT), in cases with chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR).MethodsTwenty-three eyes of 23 treatment-naive chronic CSCR patients were included in this study. The irradiation of 577 nm yellow light was conducted on the serous detachment area after switching over to the NRT algorithm. Anatomical and functional changes after treatments were investigated.ResultsThe mean age of the subjects was 48.68 +/- 5.93 years (41-61). The mean best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and the mean central macular thickness (CMT) values were 0.42 +/- 0.12logMAR (0.20-0.70) and 315.69 +/- 61.25 mu m (223-444) before NRT; and 0.28 +/- 0.11logMAR (0.10-0.50) and 223.26 +/- 60.91 mu m (134-336) at the 2nd month follow-up visit (p < 0.001, for both). At the 2nd-month follow-up visit after NRT, complete resorption of subretinal fluid was observed in 18 eyes (78.3%) and incomplete resorption in five eyes (21.7%). Worse values of BCVA and CMT before NRT were found as increased risk for incomplete resorption (p = 0.002 and rho = 0.612 for BCVA, and p < 0.001 and rho = 0.715 for CMT).ConclusionSignificant functional and anatomical improvements can be observed in the early period after NRT in patients with chronic CSCR. Patients having worse baseline BCVA and CMT have increased risk for incomplete resorption.
