This is a fundus photo in the eye of a young phakic patent who presented with a 6 month history of "difficulty seeing at night" and subjective nasal "blurriness" in the left eye. There was a chronic temporal RD, OS, extending to the arcades (Mac on). This photo is week 1 s/p Pneumatic retinopexy with SF6 gas and laser retinopexy to temporal breaks (6 holes, lattice); no PVD. As you can see, there is a "bleb" of viscous schlieren given the chronic nature of this RD that persist posterior to the breaks and temporal to the macula. This type of sub retinal fluid may take months to years to resorb.

Ultrasound biomicroscopy image of gas in the anterior chamber (A, M1) and lenticular cortex (A, M2) of a 68-year-old man following pneumatic retinopexy. Patient presented with a macula-off retinal detachment requiring vitrectomy, with pneumatic retinopexy done in office at post-operative week 1 to supplement poor gas fill.

Fundus photograph of a pneumatic retinopexy. The upper photo taken just 30 minutes after C3F8 gas injection shows rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with superior temporal horseshoe tear and gas bubbles resembling fish-eggs. After two days with appropriated head position (botton photo), the retina is attached and laser photocoagulation was performed on the border of the break. A Single great gas bubble was formed.

A 45-year-old male patient presented with a sudden onset of decreased visual acuity in the right eye, with a 24-hour progression. Upon examination, Image 1 revealed a superior rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in the right eye, with a retinal tear located between the 1 and 2 o'clock positions. Image 2: Pneumatic retinopexy by intravitreal injection of Sulfur Hexafluoride gas (SF6) at the time of diagnosis with subsequent application of 532 nm laser around the retinal tear.

Pseudocolor fundus photograph of a 68-year-old man who presented with a macula-on rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with a single horseshoe tear at 12 o'clock. Pneumatic retinopexy was performed with cryopexy to the retinal break. He returned to clinic three days later and the entire SF6 gas bubble was noted to have migrated to the subretinal space through the retinal break. Pars plana vitrectomy was performed that day with retinal reattachment and improvement in vision to 20/40 now 6 months postoperatively.

66-year-old white male with Gardner Syndrome (colon resection in 1991), who has two children with Gardner Syndrome, presented to Dr. Zocchi with an RD in the fellow eye that was successfully repaired with a pneumatic retinopexy. Currently 20/20 OU with IOP of 7 OD and 14 OS; no RAPD; PCIOL OU. Dr. Zocchi got oral permission by the patient to have these put into the Retina Image Bank. Although the CHRPE like lesions (2 OD) are not bilateral, we both think these lesions represent "retinal pigment epithelial hamartomas associated with familial adenomatous polyposis (RPEH-FAP)" as Shields described in their Intraocular Tumors book. One lesion is located superiorly and is pigmented with depigmented margins; the temporal lesion is atrophic with minimal remaining pigment hypertrophy.
