Clinical Trial: Optical Coherence Tomography Evaluation of Retinoschisis and Retinal Detachment
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Observational
Official Title: Use of Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography to Differentiate and Follow-up Senile Retinoschisis and Retinal Detachment
Brief Summary:
Retinoschisis is usually a rare self-limited disease and seldom shows progression. There a splitting of the neurosensory retina occurs usually in the inferior temporal. Patients usually have good visual acuity and are asymptomatic. Combination of an inner and outer layer hole is considered high risk factor for development of a schisis detachment. The most important differential diagnosis is an retinal detachment, since if misdiagnosed unnecessary treatment is provided. In clinical examination, both can appear very thin and transparent.
Therefore exact diagnosis of retinoschisis and retinal detachment has to be assessed and regular follow-up controls have to be conducted for sufficient recognition of progression.
