title: Hospitalization for retinal surgery.
abstract: Recovery from general anaesthetic and ocular discomfort may be the only logical reasons for hospitalization after retinal surgery, and 3 days should be sufficient for this--24 hours in most cases. Some patients, discreetly chosen, could be managed on a day case basis, having surgery under local anaesthetic.
