  • Submacular PFO

    Feb 20 2020 by Kevin J. Blinder, MD, FASRS

    This is a 53-year-old gentleman that was referred to us for a second opinion with an inoperable RD with PVR after 3 failed attempts. We performed a PPV, membranectomy, scleral buckling procedure, with silicone oil injection. This case did not require PFO. You can imagine our surprise when we discovered submacular PFO postoperatively. It is very difficult to see the PFO on the Optos. The infrared shows it clearly, with confirmation of the submacular space on the SD-OCT.
