Shattered Vision: Myopia's Threat of Giant Retinal Tears - Case Study at TOSCON 2024
Giant retinal tears (GRT) pose a serious risk in high myopia cases, requiring prompt surgical intervention to prevent complications like retinal detachment. Dr. Gorla Tejasree presents a case study of a 31-year-old male with GRT and retinal detachment, successfully managed through surgical techniques at the 9th Annual State Ophthalmological Conference (TOSCON) in Hyderabad. The patient's post-operative vision showed improvement, emphasizing the importance of timely diagnosis and treatment for GRT associated with myopia.

SHATTERED VISION: MYOPIAS SILENT THREAT OF GIANT RETINAL TEARS DR.GORLA TEJASREE 9th Annual State Ophthalmological Conference TOSCON 2024 12th to 14th July, 2024 at Katriya Hotel & Towers, Hyderabad INTRODUCTION GIANT RETINAL TEARS- a continuous ,circumferential peripheral retinal break of 3 or more clock hours( 90 ). Risk factors include trauma, age, hereditary vitreoretinopathies, pseudophakia and high myopia. GRT need special mention due to special characteristics like: Rapidly leading to retinal RD. Increased risk of proliferative vitreoretinopathy. Fellow eye involvement occurs frequently. Requires meticulous surgery to prevent complications.

DISCUSSION RE POD 1 GIANT RETINAL TEARS with RD with no macular detachment have shown good improvement in vision following surgical intervention shows importance of early intervention in such cases. High myopia risk factor for fellow eye giant retinal tear requires meticulous follow-up and prophylactic 360 barrage laser can be done as a precautionary measure.

Cases of GRT with high myopia should be kept on regular follow-up for the fellow eye even after involved eye operated successfully. This case is reported to highlight the need for timely intervention and proper management in such cases. THANKYOU
