ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate the complication incidence of 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy day surgery.METHODS:
A retrospective review was conducted on 79 eyes that underwent 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy day surgery from September 2009 to September 2010. The main outcome measures included changes in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), and presence of postoperative complications after the day surgery.RESULTS:
The mean preoperative log MAR BCVA improved from 1.32 +/- 0.96 to 0.40 +/- 0.41 at 3 months after surgery (p 0.05). At the end of surgery, suture placement was required for sclerotomy site leakage in 4 eyes (5.1%). There were 10 eyes (12.7%) with postoperative complications, including 7 eyes with increased IOP (8.9%), hypotony in 2 eyes (2.6%) and vitreous hemorrhage in 1 eye (1.3%), with no case requiring reoperation.CONCLUSIONS:
The patients who underwent 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy day surgery achieved visual improvement without serious complications postoperatively.
