FLADESIL: Evolution of Aqueous Flare in Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachments Treated With Gas or Silicone Oil Tamponade.
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
To examine and to compare the evolution of aqueous flare from presentation until the third postoperative month in a series of consecutive patients who underwent primary vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), in 4 groups of patients :
-
Group 1 : 48 eyes primarily treated with gas tamponade
-
Group 2 : 11 eyes primarily treated with silicone oil tamponade
-
Sub-Group G1RG : 8 eyes among Group 1 treated with gas after relapse
-
Sub-Group G1RS : 3 eyes among Group 1 treated with silicone oil after relapse

Initial gas tamponade Primary vitrectomy and fluid-air exchange with SF6 or C2F6 gas tamponade |
Other: Aqueous flare measurement
Aqueous flare was measured preoperatively and postoperatively with a laser flare-cell meter (LFCM ; Kowa FM-500, Kowa Company Ltd, Tokyo, Japan).

Other: Aqueous flare measurement
Aqueous flare was measured preoperatively and postoperatively with a laser flare-cell meter (LFCM ; Kowa FM-500, Kowa Company Ltd, Tokyo, Japan).
|
Relapse treated with gas tamponade Secondary vitrectomy and fluid-air exchange with SF6 or C2F6 or C3F8 gas tamponade |
Other: Aqueous flare measurement
Aqueous flare was measured preoperatively and postoperatively with a laser flare-cell meter (LFCM ; Kowa FM-500, Kowa Company Ltd, Tokyo, Japan).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in aqueous flare measurement (expressed as photon counts per millisecond and measured with a laser flare-cell meter) [preoperatively and postoperatively at 2 weeks and 3 months after surgery]
Aqueous flare was measured preoperatively and postoperatively at 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 3 months with a laser flare-cell meter, in patients treated for RRD
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Change in aqueous flare measurement (measured with a laser flare-cell meter) [postoperatively at 2 weeks and 3 months after surgery]
To describe the evolution of the aqueous humor flare between the postoperative visits at 2 weeks and at 3 months after retinal detachment surgery in each groups of patients.
- Comparison of aqueous flare values (measured with a laser flare-cell meter) between patients who relapsed and patients who didn't relapse [preoperative]
To compare the preoperative flare measurements between patients without versus with recurrence among those treated with gas
- Evolution of measures of visual acuity [preoperatively and postoperatively at 3 months]
The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was measured with projected-light Snellen charts and expressed in logMAR.
- Evolution of macular status [preoperatively and postoperatively at 3 months]
Evaluation of macular status with macular imaging by optical coherence tomography (Heidelberg Engineering)
- Relapsing status (yes or not) [at 3 months postoperative]
Determined by careful fundus and peripheral retina examination.
