ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effects of scleral buckling operations on treating longstanding retinal detachment with subretinal proliferation.MethodsThe clinical data of 36 patients (40 eyes) with long-standing retinal detachment with subretinal proliferation who had undergone scleral buckling operation were retrospectively analyzed, and the clinical features, therapeutic methods and curative effects were summarized.ResultsThe diagnosis of long-standing retinal detachment mainly based on the examination of ocular fundus. The features of the affected eyes were: flat retinal detachment, thin and transparent retina, and formation of subretinal cords. In 40 eyes undergone scleral encircling and buclking, 36 (90%) had one-off successful operation, and the visual acuities over 0.05 were found in 77.5% of the whole eyes.ConclusionsScleral encircling and buckling procedures can be used to treat long-standing retinal detachment with subretinal proliferation with fairish cured rate.
