Abstract:
At present, the occurrence and development of cataract in patients operated by vitrectomy is more common. The patient, who would be in cataract surgery, is prone to suffering from higher risks and complications in eyes if he had vitrectomy before than those without vitrectomy. Consequently, it is a significant challenge for ophthalmologists to determine the choice of surgery and the operation during surgery. Compared with cataract surgery after vitrectomy without perfusion, phacoemulsification with 25-gauge perfusion is an effective method, which can maintain the intraocular pressure, stabilize the anterior chamber, and reduce the intraoperative and postoperative complications. In conclusion, phacoemulsification with 25-gauge perfusion is a preferred method for cataract patients after vitrectomy.
