[Etiopathogenic consideration in the development of retinal detachment in aphakic and pseudoaphakic eye].
OBJECTIVE
Is to evaluate the risk factors implicated in the development of retinal detachment in aphakic and pseudophakic eyes.


METHODS
We studied 46 cases operated for cataract by planned extracapsular cataract extraction with or without intraocular lens, wich developed after the operation retinal detachments.


RESULTS
Retinal detachment appeared in 2.98% cases of EEC with AC-IOL and in 0.56% in EEC with PC-IOL. We performed Yag laser capsulotomy in 4 cases. Retinal detachment appeared in 12 cases between 6-12 months. The most frequent breaks causing retinal detachment where "horse shoe tears" in 23.4% of cases and tears in 14.89% cases.


CONCLUSIONS
1. High myopia and peripheral retinal degenerations are risk factors in the development of retinal detachment after the cataract operation. 2. Vitreous loss facilitates the appearing of vitreo-retinal tractions followed by retinal detachment. 3. PC-IOL reduces the frequency of retinal detachment by the stabilisation of the eye and limiting the ophthalmodonesis.
