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
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.
The aim of the protocol is to compare the ocular outcomes after spontaneous vitreous hemorrhage treated with an early vitrectomy versus ultrasound monitoring with late vitrectomy. The hypothesis is that an early vitrectomy could decrease the rate of retinal detachment occurring after a spontaneous vitreous hemorrhage.
Report efficiency and clinical outcomes using 25-gauge, bevel-tip, 20000 cut per minute vitrectomy probe among eyes with various vitreo-retinal diseases
Hypothesis: Patients undergoing pars plana vitrectomy for the indication of diabetic vitreous hemorrhage will have a lower incidence of postoperative vitreous hemorrhaging during the 6-month trial period when vitreous substitution with 20-30% sulfur hexafluoride gas is utilized compared to vitreous substitution with balanced salt solution.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of oral sedation to intravenous sedation with anesthesiology support and monitoring.
Prospective study comparing efficacy and safety of intravitreal aflibercept injection and panretinal photocoagulation to early vitrectomy for patients with diabetic vitreous hemorrhage.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Anti-VEGF instead of intraoperative fan-shaped photocoagulation in BRVO combined with vitreous hemorrhage.
This is a phase I/II open label, randomized, interventional clinical trial. Study eyes will receive one preoperative intravitreal aflibercept injection (IAI) <21 days but >7 days prior to vitrectomy and one intraoperative IAI at end of surgery followed by randomization in a 1:1 ratio into either 4 mandatory postoperative q4weeks IAI followed by mandatory q8 weeks IAI for 52 weeks follow-up (q8 week Group) or 2 mandatory postoperative q4weeks IAI followed by mandatory q16 weeks IAI for 52 weeks follow-up (q16 week Group).
Although vitreous hemorrhage (VH) from proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) can cause acute and dramatic vision loss for patients with diabetes, there is no current, evidence-based clinical guidance as to what treatment method is most likely to provide the best visual outcomes once intervention is desired. Intravitreous anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy alone or vitrectomy combined with intraoperative PRP each provide the opportunity to stabilize or regress retinal neovascularization. However, clinical trials are lacking to elucidate the relative time frame of visual recovery or final visual outcome in prompt vitrectomy compared with initial anti-VEGF treatment. The Diabetic Retinopathy Clinical Research Network Protocol N demonstrated short-term trends consistent with a possible beneficial effect of anti-VEGF treatment in eyes with VH from PDR, including greater visual acuity improvement and reduced rates of recurrent VH as compared with saline injection. It is possible that a study with a longer duration of follow-up with structured anti-VEGF retreatment would demonstrate even greater effectiveness of anti-VEGF for VH to avoid vitrectomy and its attendant adverse events while also improving visual acuity. On the other hand, advances in surgical techniques leading to faster operative times, quicker patient recovery, and reduced complication rates may make prompt vitrectomy a more attractive alternative since it results in the immediate ability to clear hemorrhage and to perform PRP if desired, often as part of one procedure. This proposed study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of two treatment approaches for eyes with VH from PDR: prompt vitrectomy + PRP and intravitreous aflibercept injections.
