  2. Background • Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) • PPV is now the most popular procedure as the first surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). • Single surgery success rate : 70-98%a-e • 360 degree prophylactic laserf-g • It may reduce recurrence by producing the second ora serrata. • Disadvantages : time-consuming, potential overtreatment, risk of laser-related complications a.

  3. Fortified barrier laser on the Vitreous base • The residual vitreous in the vitreous base • It causes traction force to the retina. • The main reason for recurrence after PPV. • Additional laser to the vitreous base • Adjacent to the retinal break • It was expected to reduce recurrence as well as to avoid the drawbacks of 360 degree laser. 360 degree laser fortified barrier laser

  4. Purpose & Methods • To investigate the efficacy of fortified barrier laser (FBL) on the vitreous base comparing to conventional barrier laser (CBL) in vitrectomy for RRD. • Study design • Retrospective case series • Inclusion criteria • RRD without PVR C • PPV not combined with buckle or silicone oil tamponade • FBL vs CBL • Primary outcome : single surgery success rate (SSSR)

  5. Surgical procedures • Vitrectomy • Concurrent phacoemulsification & IOL implantation • Machine : Constellation (Alcon) or Eva (DORC) • Meticulous removal of the vitreous • Barrier laser • CBL : 3–4 rows of laser burn were made around each break. • FBL : CBL + additional 3–4 rows of laser burn about 0.5 clock-hour long adjacent to the break along the posterior border of the vitreous base Vitreous base

  6. Demographics * fortified barrier laser, † conventional barrier laser

  7. Surgical outcomes * fortified barrier laser, † conventional barrier laser, ǂ best-corrected visual acuity

  8. Case 1 Before operation After operation

  9. Case2 Before operation After operation

  10. Conclusions • The modified barrier laser technique fortified along the vitreous base was a simple and effective procedure in PPV for RRD to reduce the recurrence rate without increasing the risk of complications related to photocoagulation.
