Result Of Pars Plana Vitrectomy In Post Traumatic Endophthalmitis

Abstract

Aim:To evaluate visual outcomes and identify prognostic factors after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) surgery for traumatic endophthalmitis.Methods:Medical records of 20 patients diagnosed with traumatic endophthalmitis that had undergone pars plana vitrectomy were retrospectively reviewed.Result:20 patients all underwent PPV surgery.50% of them obtained BCVA better than fingers counting (FC). Good final visual prognosis was significantly associated between trauma and PPV treatment.Conclusions:Good visual outcomes can be achieved for most patients who undergo vitreoretinal surgery after open globe trauma.
