To evaluate the incidence of symptomatic anisometropia and aniseikonia requiring intervention following surgery with combined pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and broad 276 style encircling scleral buckle (ESB) for the repair of rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRD) and to report axial length (AL) and keratometry changes, a retrospective review of consecutive RRD patients treated with combined PPV and ESB between June 2016 until September 2019 was performed. All patients with symptomatic optically induced aniseikonia requiring additional interventions or surgical procedures including clear lens exchanges, secondary intraocular lens implants or contact lenses were documented. Keratometry and AL measurements were recorded for each eye and changes calculated. In total, 100 patients underwent combined PPV, ESB and endotamponade with mean age of 59.47 years (SD 11.49)...................
