Mechanical forces pulling on the retina produce symptoms. The same forces that pull on the retina and cause symptoms exert force to further pull the retina off of the RPE. Traction may avulse flap, releasing traction and creating operculum. Subclinical retinal detachment can occur with flap tear or any other break. Subclinical detachment is defined as retinal detachment (or subretinal fluid) extending beyond 1DD from the edge of the break, but not progressing more than 2DD posterior to the equator. The presence of subretinal fluid is ominous.
