Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of vitrectomy for open globe injuries with intraocular foreign bodies in 48 hours after injury.Methods Retrospective analysis was used to evaluate the patients with open globe injuries (OGIs) accompanied by intraocular foreign bodies (IOFB) who underwent vitrectomy of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) within 48 hours during the period from January 1,2009 to March 1,2015 in our hospital.Results Among the 56 eyes,16 eyes with intraocular foreign bodies occurred endophthalmitis,while the other 40 eyes did not;the intraocular foreign bodies removal rate was 100％.Among all the patient eyes,52 eyes were saved after surgery,while 4 eyes failed.The pars plana vitrectomy operation ratio of the intraocular foreign bodies patients with endophthalmitis and operated within 24 to 48 hours was 2.09 times than that within 24 hours.There was no significant difference in terms of eye preservation,one time of retinal reposition and abnormal intraocular pressure no matter the PPV surgery was conducted within 24 hours or 24 to 48 hours after injury.Conclusion Early vitrectomy is a safe and effective method for the treatment of open globe injuries with intraocular foreign bodies.
