Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of vitreoretinal surgery with lens sparing technique in treating the detachment with giant retinal tear(GRT) associated with proliferative vitreoretinopathy(PVR). Methods Thirty one consecutive eyes with GRT underwent vitrectomy were analysed retrospectively. Operative techniques included peeling of pre retinal membrane, injection of perfluorodecalin liquid, retinotomy and retinectomy,endolaser,and silicon oil or C 2F 6 gas tamponade. Lens sparing vitrectomy was performed in 28 phakic eyes. Follow up period ranged from 11 to 34 months. Results Anatomic retinal attachment was achieved intraoeratively in 29 eyes. In 16 eyes of 28 eyes with postoperative cataract formation,3 eyes underwent cataract surgery with or without intraocular lens implantation. The corrected final visual acuity ranged from 0.4 to 0.01. Conclusion Most phakic eyes of retinal detachment with GRT PVR can be successfully operated on with an outcome of improving the visual acuity by using techniques of lens sparing vitrectomy, perfluorodecalin liquid and silcone oil tamponade.
