Giant retinal tear detachment
A giant retinal tear is a full-thickness break in the retina, often exceeding 90 degrees of circumference, and frequently leads to retinal detachment. This condition requires urgent intervention, typically with vitrectomy and retinal reattachment surgery, to prevent further vision loss. Early detection and prompt surgical management are crucial for preserving vision. #GiantRetinalTear #RetinalDetachment #Vitrectomy #RetinaSurgery…
RRD: Giant retinal tear
Giant retinal tears can be assessed using fundus autofluorescence (FAF), which reveals the previous location of retinal vessels as hyperautofluorescent lines. These lines indicate where the retinal vessels were detached from the underlying retinal pigment epithelium, aiding in the evaluation of the extent of the tear and guiding surgical repair. #GiantRetinalTear #FAF #Hyperautofluorescence #RetinaImaging #retina #oftalmo #ophthalmology…
