  • Title: Treatment of serous retinal detachments associated with optic disk pits in dogs.
    Author: Vainisi SJ, Peyman GA, Wolf ED, West CS.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1989 Nov 01; 195(9):1233-6. PubMed ID: 2584121.
    Abstract:
    Serous retinal detachment, associated with optic disk pit, was diagnosed in 28 eyes of 24 dogs. Xenon arc photocoagulation was used in treatment of the detachment. Of 24 dogs, 21 were Collies. In 23 eyes, retinal detachments affected temporal and/or inferior portions of the retina. In 5 eyes, detachments were predominantly superior and/or nasal. A single photocoagulation treatment resulted in reattachments in 25 eyes. Of the 3 remaining detachments, 2 eyes improved with additional photocoagulation, and 1 eye, which was not treated further, had a complete retinal detachment.
