Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Retinoschisis of Fovea:

1.	Retinaldehyde (Retinal)IBA 08/25/2008 - "Male patients exhibited typical bilateral foveal retinoschisis in two retinal layers and characteristic ERG changes. " 01/01/2015 - "Macular peeling refers to the surgical technique for the removal of preretinal tissue or the internal limiting membrane (ILM) in the macula for several retinal disorders, ranging from epiretinal membranes (primary or secondary to diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment…) to full-thickness macular holes, macular edema, foveal retinoschisis, and others. "
2.	Fluorescein (Funduscein)FDA LinkGeneric 08/01/2006 - "An 11-year-old girl, from non-consanguineous parents, presented with bilateral visual loss from isolated foveal retinoschisis as confirmed by a normal fluorescein angiogram and characteristic optical coherence tomogram. "
3.	dorzolamide (Trusopt)FDA LinkGeneric 12/01/2012 - "We report a case of bilateral foveal retinoschisis before and after treatment with topical dorzolamide, which was misdiagnosed as bilateral hyperopic amblyopia. "
4.	genipinIBA 12/01/2018 - "For at least a 1-year period of follow-up, PSR with genipin-cross-linked sclera should be considered as a preferred surgical approach to treat MHRD in highly myopic eyes, especially when foveal retinoschisis is also documented."

Therapies and Procedures

1.	Traction 04/01/2008 - "Vitreous traction may play a role in the development of foveal retinoschisis."
2.	Aftercare (After-Treatment) 12/01/2012 - "We report a case of bilateral foveal retinoschisis before and after treatment with topical dorzolamide, which was misdiagnosed as bilateral hyperopic amblyopia. "
