Purpose:To determine the effects of traditional Chinese medicines on subretinal fluld absorption after Operation for retinal detachment.Mehods:Among100eyes with operations fo retinal detachment without drainage of fluid,there were 50eyes in traditional Chinese medicine treatment group and 50eyes in the control group.and there were no significant difference between the two groups in age,myopia and retinal detachment area.We observed the time for the absorption of subretinal fluid and visual acuity improvement aftr the opera-tions for retinal detachment.Results;he result showed that the average time for the absorption of subretinal fluid was14.5days in the traditional Chinese medicine treatment group,21.7days in the control group and the visual acuity was better in the former than in the latter.Conclusions:The taditional Chinese medicine treatment could increase the ab-sorption of subretional fluid,the mechanisms of which may be that Chinese medicines regulated and impved the general blood circulation and local eye blood criculation and the function of blood-retinal barrier so that they increase the out-ward osmotic suction forces of the pigment epithelium.
