Surgical Management of Pseudophakic and Aphakic Retinal Detachment; a Randomized Clinical Trial

Phase 3

• Conditions: Pseudophakic Retinal Detachment; Aphakic Retinal Detachment
• Interventions: Procedure: scleral buckling, primary vitrectomy

• Registration Number: NCT00370279
• Lead Sponsor: Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences

Brief Summary

To compare the visual and anatomical outcomes and complications of four surgical techniques (1- scleral buckling, 2- primary vitrectomy without encircling band, 3- primary vitrectomy with encircling band, 4- triamcinolone assisted vitrectomy) for management of pseudophakic and aphakic retinal detachment
