Indications for vitrectomy in congenital retinoschisis.
Two patients with congenital retinoschisis developed rhegmatogenous retinal detachments with either a tractional component or associated vitreous haemorrhage. The second patient also had a large, raised schisis cavity under vitreous traction, which obscured visualisation of the macula. Vitrectomy is indicated for some patients with congenital retinoschisis.
