1. PPV + laser+gas tamponade

  1. M: male, F: female, AL: axial length, MHRD: macular hole retinal detachment, ILM:inner limiting membrane, P: phacoemulsification, I:IOL implant, RRD: rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, PPV: pars plana vitrectomy, FEVR: familial exudative vitreoretinopathy
  2. Primary retinal repair surgery was done by Dr. Duan in case1,4,7,10,12 and 14. Primary scleral buckling was done by other surgeon in case 5 and the PPV surgery was done by Dr. Duan. The rests were previously treated by other surgeons
  3. a Lasik surgery history before RRD, P + I surgery after scleral buckling and YAG laser capsulotomy later
  4. b Lasik surgery history before RRD, cornea punctate opacity
  5. c Lasik surgery history before RRD
  6. d posterior capsular opacity, cornea limbus is cloudy
  7. e superior temporal corneal leukoma
  8. * Secondary complication, the reason for last surgery. At the time of SB, macular hole was totally closed after the amending PPV surgery
  9. gas tamponade: If we don’t know the exact gas type, we generally referred to as gas tamponade
