文摘
Background Shallow subfoveal fluid accumulation after successful surgery for retinal detachment can be the reason for compromised visual acuity. To date, therapeutical options to tackle this problem have not been established. Selective retina therapy (SRT) is a new laser technology that uses a train of μs-laser pulses to selectively damage retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells while sparing retinal structures.
