Abstract

To treat patients with eye injuries remains a topical problem due to the high incidence of this type of pathology and the severity of clinical outcomes. Ciliochoroidal detachment (CCD) occurring in 1-9% of the victims is one of the most common complications of mechanical eye injury. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficiency of pathogenetically substantiated technology for a combined laser surgical reparative intervention in posttraumatic traction CCD. The results of treatment were analyzed in 70 patients with posttraumatic traction detachment of the choroid and ciliary body. There was evidence for the need for vitrectomy and lensectomy in combination with posterior sclerectomy to eliminate traction posttraumatic CCD.
