After being informed about the study and the potential risks, the eligible patients who have given written consent to the treatment will be randomized into treatment (vitrectomy, cryo and gas) or control (viscobuckle vitrectomy) group.
The study compares standard surgery for retinal detachment (RD) (vitrectomy, cryotherapy and gas) with a surgical variation that replaces the intraocular gas tamponade with suprachoroidal injection of viscoelastic underneath the break that caused the retinal detachment.
