Outcomes of vitreoretinal surgery in retinal detachment associated with morning glory disc anomaly.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Morning glory disc anomaly (MGDA) is associated with a high prevalence of retinal detachment (RD), sometimes requiring multiple surgeries. The study aimed to establish the outcomes of RD surgery in such eyes and predict factors influencing the outcome, if any.

Methods

It was a retrospective observational study of 9 eyes that underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for RD associated with MGDA. Clinical and surgical details were correlated with outcomes of surgery as noted at the final follow-up.

Results

PPV was performed in 9 eyes. Lensectomy was done in 5 of 9 eyes (55.5%) during PPV. Laser photocoagulation around the disc was performed in 55.5% (5/9) of the eyes. Silicone oil tamponade was used in 77.7% (7/9) of eyes and gas tamponade (14% C3F8) was used in 22.
