During a presentation at the Vit-Buckle Society meeting in Las Vegas, Sally S. Ong, MD, highlighted a new study of patients who underwent primary repair of uncomplicated RRDs at the Wilmer Eye Institute to examine the baseline, surgical and postoperative characteristics that affect best-corrected VA outcomes.
