| Popis: | A 65-year-old woman was referred to our institution with a 5-day history of visual impairment in her right eye and macula-off retinal detachment. A successful 23 G pars plana vitrectomy was performed with a 1000 cs silicone oil injection, and the silicone oil tamponade was extracted 2 months later. During the fundoscopic and optical coherence tomography examinations, three subfoveal perfluorocarbon liquid bubbles were detected, and her best corrected visual acuity was limited to 20/400. Brilliant blue staining was used for the internal limiting membrane peeling, and the direct transretinal aspiration of the perfluorocarbon liquid bubbles was performed with a 23 G silicone-tip Flute cannula. This patient’s best corrected visual acuity increased to 20/200 at the 1 month follow-up and then to 20/100 at the 1-year follow-up. |
