Subjective and objective ocular disturbances in reattached retina after surgery for retinal detachment, with special
Abstract:
A questionnaire about postoperative complaints was given to patients after surgery for retinal detachment. Their visual acuity and visual field problems were analyzed. Only one third of all the patients felt postoperative improvement. Blurred vision and metamorphopsia after operation were complained of in one third of all the patients. Blurred vision was apt to be complained of in patients with macular detachment before operation. About 77% of patients with blurred vision had a visual acuity of less than 0.5. Metamorphopsia was frequently complained of in patients treated with the segmental buckling procedure.
