What are the complications of scleral cerclage

summary

Scleral cerclage is a relatively complex operation, so if the operation is not careful, it will cause many complications. In the later stage of the operation, we also need to take good care of it. Let's talk about the complications of scleral cerclage.

What are the complications of scleral cerclage

First, it is also called scleral buckling. This method can effectively reduce the volume of vitreous cavity and increase the pressure around the sclera. Most of the cases of this kind of operation are complicated, with poor eye conditions, poor prognosis, wide range of operation, large postoperative reaction, and sometimes foreign body reaction or infection.

Second: after retinal detachment, choose the scleral pressure and cerclage, can let the detachment of the retina recovery, but because this operation will cause eye deformation, retina will also be different from the usual shape, so it will cause deformation. Guidance: this kind of situation is a normal postoperative reaction. With the passage of time, some people will recover, but some people still have this phenomenon.

Third: the patients after the operation should pay attention to avoid eye injury and strenuous exercise. Retinitis refers to the retinal pigment epithelium and retinal nerve layer separation. Scleral buckling / cerclage is more common in external surgery. The damage is small, but it may affect the postoperative refraction. Attention should be paid to avoid eye trauma and strenuous exercise after surgery, and the fundus should be checked regularly to check the refraction.

matters needing attention

Scleral cerclage surgery should avoid excessive use of eyes or avoid eye injury, and to regularly go to the hospital for examination, surgery should try to let skilled doctors to do, the operation is more complex, if not careful will cause complications.
