title: [Retinal detachment].
abstract: Retinal detachment is a rare but serious disease with potential socio-professional repercussions. Its prevention rests on information of medical practitioners and patients and on photocoagulation with argon laser. Nowadays, the curative treatment of retinal detachment is surgical. When applied at an early stage and correctly performed, it should normally give satisfactory functional results.
