Abstract:
PURPOSE:To investigate the recovery of short-wavelength sensitivity in patients who had undergone successful reattachment of a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with macular involvement. METHODS:Postoperative assessment of the visual acuity and the visual fields by standard achromatic automated perimetry (SAP), and short-wavelength automated perimetry (SWAP, Humphrey visual field analyzer; macula test pattern) was performed on 12 patients after the macula was reattached. The follow-up period was up to 12 months. RESULTS:The visual acuity and SAP sensitivity recovered rapidly after reattachment, with further moderate improvements up to 6 months after reattachment. The improvements stabilized by 9 to 12 months. The SWAP sensitivities improved more slowly than the visual acuity or SAP sensitivities, but they continued to improve even when visual acuity or SAP sensitivities had stabilized. CONCLUSION:We conclude that measurement of the sensitivities of the short-wavelength-sensitive cones (S-cones) with SWAP may be a sensitive method to evaluate the visual recovery of the reattached macula following macula-off retinal detachment.
