Retinal detachment

This study tests whether pneumatic retinopexy, a procedure that injects a gas bubble into the eye, can successfully reattach a detached retina without traditional surgery. Researchers will follow 33 adults with a specific type of retinal detachment for two years, tracking how oft…

This study looked at whether early surgery (vitrectomy) or waiting with ultrasound monitoring is better for people with sudden, dense bleeding inside the eye. The goal was to see if early surgery could lower the chance of the retina detaching. Only 8 adults with recent bleeding f…

This study tests whether a blood test can help doctors tell apart uveitis caused by lymphoma from other types of uveitis. Uveitis is an eye inflammation that can lead to vision loss, and in some cases it is a sign of a rare eye lymphoma that may spread to the brain. The researche…

This early study tested a tiny dexamethasone insert placed in the tear duct of 15 children after retinal surgery or laser treatment. The goal was to see if it could safely reduce pain and eye inflammation. Researchers measured pain using a standard scale and tracked any side effe…

This early-phase study tested a single dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex) in 10 people with uveal melanoma who had fluid buildup under the retina after radiation treatment. The goal was to see if the implant is safe and can help reduce the fluid to prevent vision loss. The implant i…

This study tests a microscope that has an OCT scanner built directly into it, allowing surgeons to take detailed cross-sectional images of the eye during surgery. The goal is to see if this setup is practical and whether the extra visual information helps guide surgical decisions…

This study looked at 78 people in Pakistan who had surgery for a detached retina. Doctors compared two types of fillers used inside the eye after surgery—gas or silicone oil—to see if one caused more shifting of the retina afterward. The goal was to learn how the choice of filler…

This study followed 609 nearsighted adults who had lens surgery to see if a natural eye change called posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) affects their risk of retinal detachment. Participants were grouped by whether they had PVD before surgery or not, and were monitored for up t…

This study looked at 202 people who had surgery for retinal detachment, a condition where the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye pulls away. Researchers used high-resolution eye scans and vision tests to see how the eye heals over a year. The goal was to better understa…
