Résumé
Purpose
To characterize short-term outer retinal changes in silicone oil-filled eyes after primary macula-involving rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) repair using en face and cross-sectional optical coherence tomography (OCT), and to examine the association of outer retinal features, including foveal ellipsoid zone rosettes (FEZRs), with 12-week postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA).
Methods
This prospective observational study included 35 patients with primary macula-involving RRD who underwent pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade with follow-up at 3, 6, and 12 weeks. BCVA, external limiting membrane (ELM)/ellipsoid zone (EZ) integrity, persistent subretinal fluid (PSRF), outer retinal folds (ORFs), and FEZR were evaluated.
