Dear Dr. Didier, I have been watching your excellent videos and I like them. How can I get assess to the collection of your videos. I am from Zambia and internet is quiet a problem, I will be grateful if I can get them on a CD. my email: sasiwome@yahoo.com
I think doing a 1950's procedure is unclear for patient benefit. How about doing 25 G PPVIT-GAS- LASER? No diplopia, pain, less PVR and good vision in 2 weeks?
Dr Didier Ducournau:
I always do combined vitrectomy and scleral buckling (#240 element) whenever there is a retinal detachment, pseudophakic or aphakic. Hudson Nakamura - Retinal Specialist - Eye Bank Foundation of Goiás - Brazil, South America.
