Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to report retinal displacement incidence following rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) repair with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV), scleral buckle (SB), or combined SB/PPV. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A single-center, case series using Optos fundus autofluorescence (FAF) images was performed after RRD repair between April 2020 and February 2022. Retinal displacement was identified by imprinted retinal vessels on FAF imaging. RESULTS: One hundred ninety-four eyes were included. Ninety-seven (50.0%) eyes underwent PPV, 46 (23.7%) underwent SB, and 51 (26.3%) underwent SB/PPV. A total of 25/194 eyes (12.9%) had retinal vessel imprinting on FAF imaging consistent with retinal displacement. The SB/PPV group (9/51, 17.6%) and the PPV group (15/97, 15.5%) had significantly higher displacement rates when compared to the SB group (1/46, 2.2%; P = 0.017, P = 0.021, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Retinal displacement after RRD repair is more prevalent after PPV. There was a low rate of displacement with SB. Retinal displacement was not associated with a visual acuity difference.
