ANALYSIS OF MODERN METHODS OF TREATMENT OF RETINAL DETACHMENT IN CONGENITAL ANOMALIES OF THE OPTIC NERVE

Abstract

Optic pit and morning glow syndrome are rare congenital abnormalities of the optic nerve. Their frequency is 1:11000 [1].  Moreover, up to 70% of such anomalies are accompanied by serous retinal detachment. A feature of the latter is its spread to the macular region and fovea, which leads to decreased vision. The cause of retinal detachment in these anomalies is the presence of a defect in the peripapillary sclera, through which the subretinal space is anatomically connected to the subarachnoid space nervus opticus. A number of authors have already described various options for surgical treatment of non-rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with congenital anomalies of the optic nerve. Thus, for the optic nerve fovea, delimiting transpupillary peripapillary laser coagulation, a method of fenestration of the optic nerve sheaths, vitrectomy with pneumoretinopexy and drainage of the subretinal space through the sclera were proposed. But these methods were not always effective [2].
