Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Central subretinal hemorrhage can be a complication of arterial retinal macroaneurysm. Subretinal bleeding may lead to mechanical and toxic damage of photoreceptors, causing persisting central scotomas. Prophylactically, we perform a two-step therapy using an argon laser and vitreoretinal surgery to achieve coagulation of the bleeding source and drainage of subretinal blood. |
