Abstract:
Objective: To observe the effect of cryosurgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)by using binocular indirect ophthalmoscope.
Methods: Eighty six patients(91 eyes) were treated.Binocular indirect ophthalmoscope were used to find holes and to do cryosurgery,scleral compressing.Scleral buckling,releasing subretinal fluid,injecting the C

8 or SF
6 in the vitreous cavity has been done if necessary.
Results: Eighty four eyes had retinal reattachment after one operation,the other four eyes had retinal reattachment after twice operation,still other 3 eyes must be done with vitrectomy.
Conclusions: The cryosurgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment under binocular indirect ophthalmoscope is an effective and safe method.
