Filter by:As technology advances, vitrectomy cutters are smaller and cut rates have become faster. In this prospective study, the vitrectomy efficiency and safety between 5,000 cuts per minute with 10,000 cuts per minute are compared
Blindness can be caused by many ocular diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, age-related macular degeneration, pathologic myopia and glaucoma. Without timely diagnosis and adequate medical intervention, the visual impairment can become a great burden on individuals as well as the society. It is estimated that China has 110 million patients under the attack of diabetes, 180 million patients with hypertension, 120 million patients suffering from high myopia and 200 million people over 60 years old, which suggest a huge population at the risk of blindness. Despite of this crisis in public health, our society has no more than 3,000 ophthalmologists majoring in fundus oculi disease currently. As most of them assembling in metropolitan cities, health system in this field is frail in primary hospitals. Owing to this unreasonable distribution of medical resources, providing medical service to hundreds of millions of potential patients threatened with blindness is almost impossible. To solve this problem, this software (MCS) was developed as a computer-aided diagnosis to help junior ophthalmologists to detect 13 major retina diseases from color fundus photographs. This study has been designed to validate the safety and efficiency of this device.
We aimed o compare the refractive changes associated with pars plana vitrectomy with or without intraocular gas tamponade in pseudophakic eyes. This retrospective study included pseudophakic patients with Nd:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy who underwent 23G PPV between February 2015 and March 2019. Group 1 consisted of patients with regmatogenous RD who underwent PPV and 12% perflouropropane (C3F8) gas tamponade whereas Group 2 consisted of patients who underwent PPV for epiretinal membrane or vitreous hemorrhage (VH). No tamponade was used in Group 2. Minimum follow-up was 12 months.
To report cases who had received previous fovea-sparing internal limiting peeling membrane and developed secondary fovea epiretinal membrane contraction
The aim of the study is to gain more insight into the potential impact of a vitrectomy (removal of the vitreous) on postoperative effective position of the intraocular lens (IOL). Moreover, this study can provide very useful information for the optimal lens calculation in patients undergoing lens extraction with IOL implantation (whether or not combined with a vitrectomy) should undergo.
31 patients were included in the study,15 cases with ERM in silicone filled eyes and 16 eyes with idiopathic ERM
This study examines whether the presence of an epiretinal membrane affects the time to resolution, requirement for non-topical treatment, and outcome of pseudophakic cystoid macular oedema.
To evaluate the visual acuity, macular thickness, morphological changes after cataract surgery in eyes with previous vitrectomy for macular pucker. Associated risk factors were also investigated.
Surgical outcome of patients with macular drusen and co-existing abnormalities of the vitreoretinal interface, who routinely undergo pars plana vitrectomy with membrane peeling, is evaluated. Best corrected visual acuity as well as optical coherence tomography data are compared at baseline and last follow up. The rate of development of choroidal neovascularization postoperatively is noted.
Caffeine concentrations in the vitreous Body and exzised epiretinal membranes are measured by gas-chromatography/mass spectrometry.
