Abstract
INTRODUCTION:
Retinal breaks are a well-known complication that If left untreated can cause RD in 30-50% of eyes, leading to blindness.
RRD is the most common form of RD. which develops when there is a “break” in the NSR, which allows fluid from the vitreous cavity to enter the sub retinal space, leading to separation of the NSR from the RPE.
DFE is the gold standard for diagnosing breaks in RRD. However, this method is time-consuming, so there are new methods of examination have been used to detect breaks in RRD patients such as color fundus photographic and UWF imaging.
UWF allows for a wider field of view than traditional retinal imaging, the field of view can range from 105° to 200° when taking central images. When four gaze-steered images are obtained with central image, a field of view up to 220° means that 97% of the retina is visible.
