Abstract
- Cataract extraction, intraocular lens implantation, and pars plana vitrectomy combined in a one-stage procedure(posterior segment triple surgery) are effective operation method for complications of diabetic retinopathy and uveitis. We performed posterior segment triple surgeries in 12 eyes(12 patients) with traumatic eye injuries. After a follow up of at least 3 months, eleven eyes(92%) had a visual acuity f 20/200 or more: seven eyes(58%), 20/40 or morel. The result suggest that posterior segment triple surgery is effective in traumatic eye injuries for the fast visual rehabilitation.
