ABSTRACT

Objective To summarize the nursing experience of nursing ocular hypertensive patients having undergone vitrectomy for proliferative diabetic retinopathy.Methods Twenty-one ocular hypertensive patients having undergone vitrectomy for proliferative diabetic retinopathy were assisted to take the correct posture.They were closely observed for timely detection of ocular symptoms and signs and asked to take antihypertensive drugs.At the same time,those with neovascular glaucoma and laser iris neovascular glaucoma plasty were carefully nursed.Results Among the 21 patients(25 eyes),15 patients(18 eyes)had intraocular pressure normalized by way of medicine treatment,the intraocular pressure in another two eyes normalized after laser peripheral iridoplasty;the pressure in another one normalized after laser peripheral iridoplasty combined with peripheral iridectomy and another 4 eyes developed with neovascular glaucoma.Conclusion Combined with the operation,postoperative observation and nursing of postoperative high intraocular pressure can effectively reduce the incidence of ocular hypertension after pars plana vitrectomy for proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
