A case report, a 21 years old man, came to outpatient clinic with blurred vision in his both eye since childhood. Visual examination in his both eyes was hand movement, shallow anterior chamber, ocular tension of the right eye (RE) was 17.3 mmHg, left eye (LE) was 14.6 mmHg and his lens position in the RE was superotemporal direction subluxated and nasal superior direction subluxated in the LE, but both lenses part remains in the visual axis. Marfan Syndrom diagnosed based on ocular disorder, arachnodatily and arm span greater than height. Three Mirror Goldman (TMG) contact lens examination showed in the RE retinal break at 12 o' clock, multiple holes at 4 and 5 o'clock position, subtotal retinal detachment, PVR grade II; in the LE multiple hole at 11 o'clock position with PVR grade I and subtotal retinal detachment inferiorly with macular involvement. USG examination showed elongation of axial length up to 28 mm in the RE and 30 mm in the LE. Management consist of circling band, vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade with endolaser had been performed on the left eye. One week after vitrectomy, visual acuity became two meters counting finger, retina totally attached. His RE will be operated after his LE fully recovery. Vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade is suggested in the management of subtotal retinal detachment with multiple breaks
