Retinal dialysis is an important cause of retinal detachment and subsequent reduction of vision in the younger age groups. Dufour (I969) found that up to the age of 20 years such cases form 8 to I o per cent. of all cases of retinal detachment. Leffertstra (I 950) and Hagler and North (1968) have analysed groups of patients with dialysis and have described the clinical features of detachments caused by this type of retinal hole.
