We operated on one hundred cases of pseudophakic retinal detachments with a reattachment rate of ninety-eight percent. Fifteen of the one hundred required more than one operation and all reoperations were associated with vitrectomy. Thirty-seven percent of all cases achieved good vision of 20/40 or

We studied the effects of retinal detachment surgery on the standing potential of the human eye using the electrooculographic technique. Before and two weeks after surgery, we measured the relative base value (rBV) which is the base value of the affected eye divided by the base value of the fellow e
The hyperosmolarity response of the ocular standing potential was recorded in unilateral rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (8 eyes) and in the fellow 'healthy' eye (8 eyes). The hyperosmolarity response was greatly suppressed (M-4 SD: M and SD indicate respectively the mean and the standard deviatio
Exclusion of extraocular variables facilitates neuropharmacological retinal experiments. Isolated tissue or organs such as arterially perfused mammalian eyes provide this advantage. Electrophysiology comprising field potentials (ERG and optic nerve response) and recordings from single cells is used
Nine eyes of nine patients affected by retinal detachment with macular hole were treated with pneumoretinopexy and postoperative positioning. All the eyes were myopic (mean 13.3 d., sd 3.3), two were amblyopic and one was aphakic. The operative technique included eye softening and intravitreal SF6
Changing flow rate (F) in arterially perfused cat eyes concomitantly alters the supply of 02 and greatly affects electrical signals: increasing F increases the standing potential (SP) and decreasing F induces the opposite. Corresponding effects on c-wave are more variable. To separate changes in su
