Internal limiting membrane packing for treatment of morning glory syndrome with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

This study aimed to report the ocular features, surgical methods, and surgical outcomes of a patient with morning glory syndrome(MGS) complicated with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD).

Observations

The patient was a 38-year-old Chinese woman with congenital cataract in her left eye and an artificial eye in her right eye. Ocular examination confirmed MGS complicated with RD in the left eye and revealed a retinal hole in the temporal margin of the optic disc. The retina successfully reattached after pars plana vitrectomy(PPV), silicone oil tamponade and laser photocoagulation, but the hole did not close and occurred obvious contractile movement. The retina did not detach again during the follow-up period. One and a half years later, silicone oil removal combined
