The study includes a series of 38 patients with retinal detachment of different aetiology. Scleral reduction combined with the intrascleral implantation of absorbable Bioplast® fibrin scleral buckling rods was performed and reattachment achieved in 31 cases. The implant material is biocompatible and is eliminated from the eye in the course of a few weeks.
