Exudative macular detachment following uncomplicated pars plana vitrectomy for diabetic vitreous hemorrhage.

Exudative retinal detachment following diabetic pars plana vitrectomy with endolaser has been described in as many as 8.78% of cases, however may be missed in the early postoperative period. Multimodal imaging including multiple pigment epithelial detachments on optical coherence tomography, hyperautofluorescence, and late deep leakage on fluorescein angiography can help differentiate this condition from rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and central serous chorioretinopathy, and guide management to include corticosteroids.
