Internal limiting membrane peeling in vitreoretinal surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: clinical results, surgical options, and future prospects

Abstract

Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is one of the leading causes of primary vision disability, while the majority of RRD patients with RRD are people of active working age. Over the past 50 years, retinal detachment surgery has been progressing rapidly, the rate of success increasing up to 90% or higher. However, the reduction of reoperation risks of reoperations, improvement of functional outcomes and increase of postoperative visual acuity remain topical issues. The main reason for repeated surgical interventions is the proliferative vitreoretinopathy progression, which can lead to epiretinal fibrosis, macular oedema, or retinal detachment recurrence. The review is focused on current literature studies that report the results of internal limiting membrane peeling in cases of RRD surgeries and other optional techniques aimed at reducing the risk of the above mentioned postoperative complications.
