ABSTRACT
To compare the effectiveness and safety of scleral buckling and pars plana vitrectomy in treating retinal detachment without posterior vitreous detachment. A total of 88 eyes of 83 patients with retinal detachment without prior posterior vitreous detachment were investigated retrospectively. Group A comprised patients who underwent scleral buckling (n = 47) and Group B (n = 36) patients who were treated with pars plana vitrectomy. Anatomical success, postoperative visual acuity, and ocular adverse events were evaluated. The primary and final anatomical success rate showed a nonsignificant difference (p = 0.465 and p = 0.37 respectively). No significant difference was observed in the reoperation rate or development of epiretinal membrane between the groups (p = 0.254 and p = 0.254 respectively). However, scleral buckling resulted in significantly better visual acuity at the last follow-up (0.12 ± 0.23) compared to pars plana vitrectomy (0.37 ± 0.46, p = 0.001). The incidence of cataract progression was also significantly higher in the pars plana vitrectomy group (46%) compared to the scleral buckling group (10%, p < 0.001). Scleral buckling and pars plana vitrectomy show similar success rates in treating retinal detachment without vitreous detachment. However, due to less cataract progression and better visual acuity outcomes, scleral buckling is recommended for these cases. Determining vitreous status before surgery is crucial for optimal outcomes.
