Objective To summarize the visual outcome of patients with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery. Methods Clinical data of 188(191 eyes) with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery in a period from November 1996 to April 1998 were analysed retrospectively. Results The study included penetrating injury in 56 eyes, foreign bodies in the posterior segment in 70 eyes, blunt injury in 41 eyes , and globe rupture in 24 eyes. Main complications included endophthalmitis in 35 eyes, choroidal bleeding in 20 eyes, retinal detachment in 60 eyes, and vitreous hemorrhage in 97 eyes. Post-opera-tively, out of 188 eyes, except for 3 of patients too young to examine, visual acuity improved in 133(70.7%), including 85(45.2%) with visal acuity 0.02-1.0, 46(24.5%) remained unchanged; and 9(4.8%) had worse vision. Among 34 with no-light-perception, 12 had light-perception or over. Conclusion A majority of severe trauma eyes can be salvaged with considerable visual recovery after adequate and timely vitreous surgery. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1999,15:4-6)
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the treatment of retinal redetachment after vitrectomy and silicone oil tamponade. METHODS:Investigating retrospectively on the treatment effect of 8 cases of redetachment of retina with proliferative vitreoretinopathy(PVR) in which the retinas had been attached formerly after vetrectomy and silicone oil tamponade operation.The reoperative procedures included pars plana vitrectomy,membranes peeling,retinotomy,inner exchange of the fluid and silicone oil tampnade and subretinal membranes were removed out in 2 eyes. RESULTS:Six eyes had anatomical reattachment postoperatively and another 2 eyes still had inferior shallow retinal detachment.Visual acuity was improved in 6 patients and remained unchange in 2 patients. CONCLUSIONS:The cause of recurrent retinal detachment might be the formation of the proliferative epiretinal and subretinal membranes,and vitrectomy to release the traction of proliferative membranes and full fluid silicone oil exchange should do good to reattachment. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1996,12: 13-15 ）
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect and causes of failure of vitreoretinal(VR)surgery in rhegmatogenous retinal detachments associated with choroidal detachment. METHOD:Reviewing the operative effects of the vitreoretinal surgeries in 61patients(61 eyes)with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment associated with choroidal detachment and PVR in this hospital.Vitrectomy,peeling of preretinal membranes,fluid/air echange and inert gas,silicone oil tamponade were used in thesepatients according to need. RESULTS:On discharge from the hospital,the postoperative effect obtained in 40 case(65.57%),and out of 35 eyes receiving the inert gas tamponade 26(74.3%) got effective pesults.Fourteen cases were followed up for 3 months(averge 9.5 months)and 10(7.4%）of themrevealed stable.The factors of influencing VRsurgery seemed to be the range of choroidal detachments,numbers of opreative times,the inert gas tamponede and the time of corticosteroid application.The causes of failure of opreation might relate to severe and antrior PVR,and giant tears. CONCLUSIONS:The VR surgery was thought to be profitable in treating rhegmatogenous retinal detachment associated with choroidal detachment and PVR. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1996,12: 16-19)
Purpose To explore the characteristics of eyes after congenital cataract surgery and to evaluate the methods of different retinal detachment surgery in those eyes． Method We retrospeetively reviewed the cli ncal data of 44 eyes with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) after congenital cataract surgery,and compared the surgical results between scleral buckling and vitrectomy in those eyes．The mean interval between the congenital cataract surgery and RRD of the affectde eyes was 14．8 years and most of the techniques of cataract surgery was irrigation-aspiration and capsulotomy was performed in nearly all eyes． The mean axis length in 16 eyes was （26.8plusmn;1.90） mm． Results The success rate was 80．3% in scleral buckling and 85．7% in vitrectomy． Conclusion There is a long interval between congenital cataract surgery and RD．The pupil of these eyes is often small and immobile,causing diffculty in visualizing the peripheral retina ,decreasing the success rate of scleral buckling operation．Vitrectomy is an ideal chocie for such eyes． (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis，2000，16：71-138)
