Abstract:
Purpose: To examine the rate and outcomes of secondary vitrectomies following pneumatic retinopexy for indications other than recurrent retinal detachment (RD). Methods: This was a retrospective consecutive case series reviewing the period from 2010 to 2020. Patients were included if they required a secondary vitrectomy after a successful pneumatic retinopexy for any indication, excluding recurrent RD. Indication and time between pneumatic retinopexy and secondary vitrectomy were the primary outcome measures. Results: A total of 296 eyes that underwent pneumatic retinopexy for primary RD repair were included in the study. Six eyes underwent secondary vitrectomy after successful pneumatic retinopexy. Indications for vitrectomy included 2 eyes with epiretinal membrane (0.7 %), 1 eye with full-thickness macular hole (0.3%), and 3 eyes with vitreous opacities (1.0 %). The mean (±SD) time to vitrectomy was 6 ± 5.7 months for epiretinal membrane, 22 ± 2.1 months for vitreous opacities, and 10 months for macular hole. Conclusions: Following pneumatic retinopexy for RD repair, 2% of eyes required vitrectomy for indications other than recurrent RD. Time to secondary vitrectomy varied among the indications. Patients should be counseled appropriately for the possibility of a secondary vitrectomy following a successful pneumatic retinopexy.

Guidelines for Writing Outcome
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...
