The effect of translatory and rotatory movements upon the eye. Their significance in the development of retinal detachment.
1977
: It was shown in experimental models that translational movements of a closed chamber do not induce liquid flow in the chamber, but rotational movements do induce a current. It was also demonstrated in the experiments that rotational currents are able to elevate a rubber membrane if there is a hole and that a liquid flow is then passing through the opening. These observations initiated the idea of fixation of the eye in cases of retinal detachment in order to promote a reattachment.
