title: [Evaluation of the macula which was not involved in retinal detachment after surgical treatment of retinal detachment using scleral indentation. Summary of a doctoral thesis].
abstract: The goal of the study was the evaluation of the influence of the nowadays most frequently used surgical methods in cases of retinal detachment on the macula not involved in the detachment. The study takes into account surgical interventions which have the same indications and principles of action. They are based on an extra-scleral indentation--temporary or permanent one--by means of a Lincoff-Kreissig balloon and a meridional silicone sponge implant. The examinations comprised 54 patients. They were divided into 2 groups: 1st group (24 patients) was treated by cryopexy and a Lincoff-Kreissig balloon, the 2nd group (30 patients) by cryopexy and a meridional silicone sponge implant. In all the patients of both groups the retina reattached. During the 5-years observation of patients of the 1st group no macular changes were detected; one did not observe metamorphopsia or disturbances of the color vision. In the 2nd group instead 17 patients claimed metamorphopsia, 20 patients showed disturbances of the color vision and angiography changes involving the macular region (13 patients).
