    Retinal DetachmentBipul Baishya, Y.R. Sharma

    Name of Patient ....................................................................... Age/Sex ......... Patient ID ............................... Date .............................................

    Son / Daughter of ............................................................................................................................................................................................................

    Address ........................................................................................................................................ Tel .............................................................................

    Proposed TreatmentThe doctor has explained that I, (name of patient …………….…......................……),have a retinal detachment in my…...........…..eye andthat………………………………is proposed:

    RisksThese are the commoner risks. There may be other unusual risks that have not been listed here.

    I understand there are risks associated with any anesthetic agent.

    I may have side effects from any of the drugs used. The commoner side effects include light-headedness, nausea, skin rash and constipation.

    I understand the procedure has the following specific risks and limitations:1. Although most retina detachments can be treated, a small proportion (5%) may be inoperable and blindness cannot be prevented.2. Failure to accomplish intent of surgery3. More than one surgery may be required. Like if Scleral buckling surgery fails, Vitrectomy may be required with Silicone Oil or Gas

    tamponade.4. In case of Silicone Oil or Gas injection, I have to maintain position depending upon the surgery.5. If Gas is injected, I have to restrict air travel until gas is absorbed.6. If Silicone oil is injected, then resurgery will be required to remove the oil.7. It may take up to 18 months before the final outcome of the surgery is known. Although many cases achieve a good result, this

    depends on several factors including how long the detachment had been present.8. It may not be possible to predict before the operation which cases will do well.9. There is a chance I may develop further retina detachments in future in the same eye or in the opposite eye.10. In some cases, more than one operation may be required11. Though rare, I may develop complications like vitreous hemorrhage, infection, elevated eye pressure (glaucoma), poorly healing

    or non-healing corneal defects, corneal clouding and scarring, cataract, which might require eventual or immediate removal oflens, double vision, eyelid droop, and loss of circulation to vital tissues in the eye, resulting in decrease or loss of vision

    There is an extremely small risk (1:17000 cases) that the opposite eye to the one having surgery may become inflamed, especially ifcomplications occur after the operation. This is called sympathetic ophthalmia .Although this can be treated, in some cases, eyesightmay be lost.

    I understand some of the above risks are more likely if I smoke, am overweight, diabetic, have high blood pressure or have had previousheart disease.

    Individual RisksI understand the following are possible significant risks and complications specific to my individual circumstances, that I have consideredin deciding to have this operation:

    Proposed TreatmentThe doctor has explained that I, (name of patient …………….………), have …............................... in my ........................... Eye andthat………………………………is proposed.

    RisksThese are the commoner risks. There may be other unusual risks that have not been listed here.

    I understand there are risks associated with any anesthetic agent.

    I may have side effects from any of the drugs used. The commoner side effects include light-headedness, nausea, skin rash and constipation.

    I understand the procedure has the following specific risks and limitations:

    1. Failure to accomplish intent of surgery2. Retinal detachments that may require additional surgery or may be inoperable3. Depending upon the surgery, Silicone Oil or Gas may be required for tamponade.4. In case of Silicone Oil or Gas injection, I have to maintain position depending upon the surgery.5. If Gas is injected, I have to restrict air travel until gas is absorbed.6. If Silicone oil is injected then resurgery will be required to remove the oil.7. It may take up to 18 months before the final outcome of the surgery is known.8. In a few cases, the underlying condition cannot be treated and blindness cannot be prevented.9. It may not be possible to predict before the operation which cases will do well.10. There is a chance I may develop further retina detachments in future in the same eye or in the opposite eye.11. In some cases, more than one operation may be required12. Though rare I may develop complications like vitreous hemorrhage, infection, elevated eye pressure (glaucoma), poorly healing or

    non-healing corneal defects, corneal clouding and scarring, cataract, which might require eventual or immediate removal of lens,double vision, eyelid droop, and loss of circulation to vital tissues in the eye, resulting in decrease or loss of vision

    There is an extremely small risk (1:17000 cases) that the opposite eye to the one having surgery may become inflamed, especially ifcomplications occur after the operation. This is called sympathetic ophthalmia .Although this can be treated, in some cases, eyesight maybe lost.

    I understand some of the above risks are more likely if I smoke, am overweight, diabetic, have high blood pressure or have had previousheart disease.

    Individual RisksI understand the following are possible significant risks and complications specific to my individual circumstances, that I have consideredin deciding to have this operation:

    Declaration by PatientI acknowledge doctors from the ophthalmic team have informed me about the procedure, alternative treatments and answered my specificqueries and concerns about this matter.

    I acknowledge that I have discussed with the surgical team any significant risks and complications specific to my individual circumstancesthat I have considered in deciding to have this operation.

    I agree to any other additional procedures considered necessary in the judgment of my surgeon during this operation.

    I agree to the disposal by the hospital authorities of any tissues that may be removed during the procedure. I understand that some tissuesor samples may be kept as part of my hospital records.

    I have received no guarantee the operation will be successful.

    I have received a copy of this form to take home with me.

    If a needle stick/sharps injury occurs to staff during any operation I give my permission for blood to be taken and tested for HIV and otherblood borne disorders.

    I understand I will be advised and counselled as soon as practicable after the operation if this has been necessary.

    Macular Hole SurgeryRitesh Gupta

    Name of Patient ....................................................................... Age/Sex ......... Patient ID ............................... Date .............................................

    Son / Daughter of ............................................................................................................................................................................................................

    Address ........................................................................................................................................ Tel .............................................................................

    Indications and BenefitsYour doctor has diagnosed you with macular hole and informed you that if it is left untreated, it is likely that you will have gradual centralvision deterioration but you will not lose all of the vision in your eye.

    Your doctor has informed you that a procedure involving pars plana vitrectomy with/without internal limiting membrane removal andgas injection will be performed in your eye under local/general anesthesia. The important factors in predicting whether the hole closesas a result of surgery is the duration for which the hole has been present and the size of the hole. The success rate for holes that have beenpresent for less than six months is about 90%. However, this reduces to around 60% for a hole which has been present for a year or more.Your doctor has told you that a successful macular hole closure does not guarantee complete visual recovery and that a 2-line improvementis usually the measure of success of the surgery. You have been told that postoperative positioning also has an important role to play forclosure of macular hole and that a good majority of the failures stem from incomplete and inconsistent postoperative positioning.

    ComplicationsAs with any surgical procedure, there are risks associated with macular hole surgery. Not every conceivable complication can be coveredin this form but the following are examples of risk encountered with macular hole surgery. These complications can occur days, weeks,months, or years later. They can result in loss of vision or blindness. Careful follow-up is required after surgery.

    Complications of the surgery1. Failure to accomplish closure of the hole(10-40% depending primarily on the duration and size)2. Retinal detachments that may require additional surgery or may be inoperable (1-2%)3. Vitreous hemorrhage4. Infection (0.02%-0.1%)5. Elevated eye pressure (glaucoma)6. Cataract, which might require eventual or immediate removal of lens7. Poorly healing or non-healing corneal defects8 Corneal clouding and scarring

    Complications of anesthesia injections around the eye

    1. Perforation of eyeball2. Needle damage to the optic nerve, which could destroy vision3. Retrobulbar hemorrhage4. Possible drooping of eyelid5. Systemic effects that have the potential for life-threatening complications and death

    Patient ConsentIn spite of the risks noted above, I understand that there is more risk to my vision if I do not have the operation than if I do. I have read andunderstand the consent form, I have had my questions answered, and I authorize my surgeon to proceed with the operation on my.................................. (indicate “right” or “left” eye).

    AvastinTM Intraivtreal InjectionZahir Abbas, Gunjan Prakash

    Name of Patient ....................................................................... Age/Sex ......... Patient ID ............................... Date .............................................

    Son / Daughter of ............................................................................................................................................................................................................

    Address ........................................................................................................................................ Tel .............................................................................

    Possible Benefits and “Off-Label” StatusAvastinTM was not initially developed to treat your eye condition. Based upon the results of clinical trials that demonstrated its safety andeffectiveness, AvastinTM was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer.Once a device or medication is approved by the FDA, physicians may use it “off-label” for other purposes if they are well-informed aboutthe product, base its use on firm scientific method and sound medical evidence, and maintain records of its use and effects. Ophthalmologistsare using AvastinTM “off-label” to treat AMD and similar conditions since research indicates that VEGF is one of the causes for the growthof the abnormal vessels that cause these conditions. Some patients treated with AvastinTM had less fluid and more normal-appearingmaculas, and their vision improved. AvastinTM is also used, therefore, to treat macular edema, or swelling of the macula. Recently, amedication similar in function and designed for intravitreal administration was approved by the FDA for the treatment of AMD.

    Possible LimitationsThe goal of treatment is to prevent further loss of vision. Although some patients have regained vision, the medication may not restorevision that has already been lost, and may not ultimately prevent further loss of vision caused by the disease.

    AlternativesYou do not have to receive treatment for your condition, although without treatment, these diseases can lead to further vision loss andblindness, sometimes very quickly. Other forms of treatment are available. At present, there are three FDA-approved treatments for neovascularage-related macular degeneration. The first two are photodynamic therapy with a drug called VisudyneTM and injection into the eye of a drugcalled MacugenTM. The third medication, LucentisTM is similar to AvastinTM. In addition to the FDA-approved medications, someophthalmologists use intravitreal triamcinolone —”off-label” to treat eye conditions like yours.

    Complications when AvastinTM is given to patients with cancerWhen AvastinTM is given to patients with metastatic colorectal cancer, some patients experienced gastrointestinal perforations or woundhealing complications, hemorrhage, arterial thromboembolic events (such as stroke or heart attack), hypertension, proteinuria, andcongestive heart failure. Patients who experienced these complications not only had metastatic colon cancer, but were also given 400times the dose you will be given, at more frequent intervals, and in a way (through an intravenous infusion) that spread the drugthroughout their bodies.

    Risk when AvastinTM is given to treat patients with eye conditionsThe risk of these complications for patients with eye conditions is low. Patients receiving AvastinTM for eye conditions are healthier thanthe cancer patients, and receive a significantly small dose, delivered only to the cavity of their eye. While there are no FDA-approvedstudies about the use of AvastinTM in the eye that prove it is safe and effective, LucentisTM, a similar drug, was recently approved for AMD.One study of patients who received AvastinTM through an intravenous infusion reported only a mild elevation in blood pressure. Anotherstudy of patients treated like you will be with intravitreal AvastinTM did not have these elevations or the other serious problems seen in thepatients with cancer. However, the benefits and risks of intravitreal AvastinTM for eye conditions are not yet fully known. In addition,whenever a medication is used in a large number of patients, a small number of coincidental life-threatening problems may occur thathave no relationship to the treatment. For example, patients with diabetes are already at increased risk for heart attacks and strokes. If oneof these patients being treated with AvastinTM suffers a heart attack or stroke, it may be caused by the diabetes and not the AvastinTMtreatment.

    Known risks of intravitreal eye injectionsYour condition may not get better or may become worse. Any or all of these complications may cause decreased vision and/or have a

  • ( 18 )

    possibility of causing blindness. Additional procedures may be needed to treat these complications. Possible complications and sideeffects of the procedure and administration of AvastinTM include but are not limited to retinal detachment, cataract formation, glaucoma,hypotony (reduced pressure in the eye), damage to the retina or cornea, and bleeding. There is also the possibility of an eye infection(endophthalmitis). Any of these rare complications may lead to severe, permanent loss of vision.

    Patient ResponsibilitiesI will immediately contact my doctor if any of the following signs of infection or other complications develop : pain, blurry or decreasedvision, sensitivity to light, redness of the eye, or discharge from the eye. I will keep all post-injection appointments so my doctor can checkfor complications.

    Although the likelihood of serious complications affecting other organs of my body is low, I will immediately contact my physician if Iexperience abdominal pain associated with constipation & vomiting, abnormal bleeding, chest pain, severe headache, slurred speech, orweakness on one side of the body. As soon as possible, I will also notify the treating ophthalmologist of these problems.

    I will inform any other surgeon that I am on a medication that needs to be stopped before I can have surgery.

    Patient ConsentThe above explanation has been read by/to me. The nature of my eye condition has been explained to me and the proposed treatment hasbeen described. The risks, benefits, alternatives, and limitations of the treatment have been discussed with me. All my questions have beenanswered.

    I understand that AvastinTM was approved by the FDA for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer, and has not been approved for thetreatment of eye conditions. Nevertheless, I wish to be treated with AvastinTM, and I am willing to accept the potential risks that myphysician has discussed with me. I hereby authorize the treating eye-surgeon to administer the intravitreal AvastinTM in my affected eye asneeded. This consent will be valid until I revoke it or my condition changes to the point that the risks and benefits of this medication forme are significantly different.

    IndicationsMacugen is used to treat adults with an eye problem called the wet form (neovascular) of age-related macular degeneration. Maculardegeneration causes vision loss leading to blindness.

    ContraindicationsDo not use Macugen if you have an infection in or around your eye

    Possible LimitationsThe goal of treatment is to prevent further loss of vision. Although some patients have regained vision, the medication may not restorevision that has already been lost, and may not ultimately prevent further loss of vision caused by the disease.

    AlternativesYou do not have to receive treatment for your condition, although without treatment, these diseases can lead to further vision loss andblindness, sometimes very quickly. Other forms of treatment are available. At present, there are three FDA-approved treatments forneovascular age-related macular degeneration. The first is photodynamic therapy with a drug called VisudyneTM. The other two areinjection into the eye of MacugenTM. and LucentisTM . In addition to the FDA-approved medications, some ophthalmologists use intravitrealAvastinTM and triamcinolone —”off-label” to treat eye conditions like yours.

    Side EffectsThe most common side effects with Macugen include:

    1. inflammation of the eye2. blurred vision or changes in vision3. cataracts4. bleeding in the eye5. swelling of the eye6. eye discharge7. irritation or discomfort of the eye8. eye pain9. seeing “spots” in your vision

    Patient ResponsibilitiesI will inform my doctor if I’m pregnant, planning to conceive or breast feeding.

    I will immediately contact my doctor if any of the following signs of infection or other complications develop:pain, blurry or decreasedvision, sensitivity to light, redness of the eye, or discharge from the eye. I will keep all my post-injection appointments so that my doctorcan check for complications.

    Although the likelihood of serious complications affecting other organs of my body is low, I will immediately contact my physician if Iexperience abdominal pain associated with constipation & vomiting, abnormal bleeding, chest pain, severe headache, slurred speech, orweakness on one side of the body. As soon as possible, I will also notify the treating ophthalmologist of these problems.

    I will inform any other surgeon that I am on a medication that needs to be stopped before I can have surgery

    Patient ConsentThe above explanation has been read by/to me. The nature of my eye condition has been explained to me and the proposed treatment hasbeen described. The risks, benefits, alternatives, and limitations of the treatment have been discussed with me. All my questions have beenanswered.
