Abstract:
Surgery for cataract resulting from pars plana vitrectomy combined with fluid/silicone oil exchange is often rewarding in terms of visual acuity improvement. Careful choice of surgical method and suitable modifications of standard technique reduce the incidence of serious complications. Per-operative posterior capsulotomy is a safe method of maintaining a clear visual axis after ECCE.
