Vitrectomy was performed on 25 eyes in 21 patients with chronic uveitis from various etiologies. Postoperative follow up averaged 22.8 months with visual improvement in 24 of 25 eyes. In this retrospective study, the techniques employed and the beneficial effect of vitrectomy alone or vitrectomy combined with cataract surgery (Iensectomy in most cases) on improving vision and decreasing th...

Eales' disease is an idiopathic obliterative retinal vasculopathy that is treated with laser photocoagulation, and/or vitrectomy. In order to determine visual outcomes and regression of retinal neovascularization following scattered peripheral retinal photocoagulation, and/or vitrectomy in cases with Eales' disease, we did a retrospective study of the records of these patients treated in La...

purpose : the aim of this study was to compare the rate and location of intraoperatively induced retinal breaks between two techniques of standard 20-gauge vitrectomy and transconjunctival 23-gauge using trocar/cannula methods : in this prospective comparative case series patients having attached retina before surgery who were operated for different vitreoretinal or macular conditions by standa...

Pars plana vitrectomy for acute infectious endophthalmitis can be challenging due to severe inflammation in the anterior chamber creating significant media opacity. We describe a surgical technique combining limbal based vitrectomy and pars plana vitrectomy to manage acute infectious endophthalmitis. Limbal based vitrectomy facilitates removal of anterior chamber fibrin and inflammatory membran...

Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect preoperative intravitreal Bevacizumab on postoperative incidence vitreous cavity hemorrhage in patients with advance diabetic eye disease undergoing 23 gauge pars plana vitrectomy. Study Duration: This was conducted department Ophthalmology Services Hospital Lahore from April 2021 September 2021. Design: Randomized Controlled Trail ...

BACKGROUND AND METHODS We compared surgical procedures and outcomes, including duration of recovery period, in eyes with proliferative diabetic retinopathy that underwent 25-gauge microincision vitrectomy surgery with those that underwent 20-gauge vitrectomy. Seventy-two eyes from 53 patients that underwent 20-gauge vitrectomy in 2006 and 87 eyes from 55 patients that underwent 25-gauge vitrect...

purpose: to report visual outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy in severely traumatized eyes with no light perception (nlp) and flat electroretinography (erg) methods: we performed a prospective interventional study on 22 severely traumatized eyes with nlp, 4+ relative afferent pupillary defect (rapd) and flat erg. results: one year after pars plana virectomy, 15 patients (68.18%) had nlp, six pati...

PURPOSE To determine the safety of pars plana vitrectomy in eyes containing a treated posterior uveal melanoma. DESIGN Interventional case series. METHODS Retrospective case series of patients with posterior uveal melanoma who underwent pars plana vitrectomy. Complications, vitreous cytology, local tumor control, and metastasis were assessed. RESULTS Nine patients met study criteria. Tumo...
