The term retinal detachment is used to describe a separation of neurosensory retina from retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). This review article describes past incorrect theories and attempt of treatment and newer advancement in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment surgery.

Keywords: Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE); Retinal Detachment Surgery; Neurosensory Retina
