  • Look Inside

We observed 9 eyes in 9 cases of retinal detachment in spite of prophylactic photocoagulation for lattice degeneration. The series comprised 6 males and 3 females. Their ages ranged from 18 to 72 years, average 45 ± 18 years. Photocoagulation had been performed in the fellow eye of retinal detachment in 5 cases and for lattice degenera-tion detected by chance in 4 cases. The interval between photocoagulation and retinal detachment ranged from 29 months to 19 years, average 7.5 ± 5.2 years. There were two types in the cause of retinal detachment. It was induced by horseshoe tear in 5 eyes. Posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) was present in all the 5 eyes. It was induced by atro-phic hole located in the area of lattice degeneration in 4 eyes. PVD was absent in 3 of these eyes. The findings show that prophylactic photocoagulation may not prevent eventual retinal detachment, particularly when photocoagulation is performed before PVD has set in.
