Pars plana coreoplasty

The work was carried out on 18 eyes of fifteen patients with inadequate pupillary zone due to different causes. A completely occluded pupil was found in nine eyes [50%] while after cataract and retained lens matter was present in eight eyes [44.4%] and a seccluded pupil with a papillary membrane was the presenting sign in one eye [5.6%]. Preoperative ultrasonography [A and B mode] was carried out for 10 eyes [55.5%]. Pars plana coreoplasty with anterior vitrectomy was done for all the selected eyes. Anatomical success was achieved in all of the operated eyes [100] while visual success was achieved in 86.7% of the operated eyes.
