On this episode of the JVRD Author’s Forum podcast, Dr. John Kitchens of Retina Associates of Kentucky discusses 'Tractional Retinal Detachment in a Patient With a History of Methamphetamine Use,' published in the March/April 2025 issue of JVRD.
Host Dr. Timothy Murray and Dr. Kitchens discuss a complex case of tractional retinal detachment initially thought to be a complication of diabetes. Despite good glycemic control (A1c 6.7), further investigation revealed the underlying cause was severe vascular damage from methamphetamine use, not diabetes. Dr. Kitchens shares insights on the importance of thorough history-taking, recognizing when clinical findings don’t align with expectations, and the value of timely surgery in achieving favorable outcomes even in complex cases.
