Summary
Scleral buckling alone successfully repaired rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRD) in two patients with ocular toxoplasmosis. This approach achieved favorable outcomes, even with active inflammation, highlighting its potential for RRD treatment.
Area of Science:
- Ophthalmology
- Retinal Surgery
- Infectious Diseases
Background:
- Ocular toxoplasmosis can lead to serious complications, including rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).
- Management of RRD in the context of active ocular inflammation presents unique challenges.
