Objective To summarize the visual outcome of patients with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery. Methods Clinical data of 188(191 eyes) with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery in a period from November 1996 to April 1998 were analysed retrospectively. Results The study included penetrating injury in 56 eyes, foreign bodies in the posterior segment in 70 eyes, blunt injury in 41 eyes , and globe rupture in 24 eyes. Main complications included endophthalmitis in 35 eyes, choroidal bleeding in 20 eyes, retinal detachment in 60 eyes, and vitreous hemorrhage in 97 eyes. Post-opera-tively, out of 188 eyes, except for 3 of patients too young to examine, visual acuity improved in 133(70.7%), including 85(45.2%) with visal acuity 0.02-1.0, 46(24.5%) remained unchanged; and 9(4.8%) had worse vision. Among 34 with no-light-perception, 12 had light-perception or over. Conclusion A majority of severe trauma eyes can be salvaged with considerable visual recovery after adequate and timely vitreous surgery. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1999,15:4-6)
Objective To investigate the preoperative design and application of the minimum foveolar translocation distance and angle of macular translocation. Methods The fundus fluorescein and indocyanine green an giographies were performed on 53 eyes of 53 patients with classic subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (SCNV), including 42 with exudative age-related macular degeneration and 11 with high myopic macular degeneration. The actual area of macular SCNV and the minimum foveolar translocation distance and angle were analyzed. Results The actual area of SCNV was 0.39~18.00 mm2 with the mean of (3.08±3.22) mm2. The designed minimum superior translocation distance was 67~2 240μm with the mean of (845.72±425.23) μm;the minimum designed minimum inferior translocation distance was 53~2 430 μm with the mean of (912.17±547.77) μm. The minimum designed superior translocation angle was 1~32°with the mean of (13.23±6.6 8)°;the minimum designed inferior translocation angle was 1~35°with the mean of (14.06±8.46)°. The individual difference of the minimum designed superior and inferior translocation distance was more than 500 μm in 16 eyes (30.19 % ), and the difference of translocation angle was more than 10°in 11(20.75%). Conclusion Preoperative design of minimum translocation distance and angle of macular translocation may be helpful to choose the operation program. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,2004,20:75-77)
Among 21 cases (27 eyes)of complicated cataract of uveitis that underwent surgery of cataract extraction, 22 eyes (81%) attained the visual acuity of 0.1 or better without apparent side-effect. The results indicated that cataract extraction is recommendable to improve visual acuity and alleviate intraocular inflammation in some eases of complicated cataract of uveltis accompanied with relatively high doage of cortical steroid therapy before and after operation,and the operation could be performed even flare and cells in aqueous humor or keratic precipitates were observed.

Objective To observe the efficacy of vitreoretinal surgery in the treatment of early traumatized eyes with no light perception. Methods We performed vitreoretinal surgery on 17 eyes of early traumatized eyes with no light perception.The patients were followed up for 2~14 months. Results Retinal reattachment was achieved in 11 eyes after srugery.8 eyes got visual acuity better than light perception postoperatively.Visual acuities of 5 eyes were better than 0.05 and the best one reached to 0.2. Conclusion Timely vitreoretinal surgery is valuable to the early traumatized eyes with no light perception.Retinal reattachment is the most important thing for the treatment of this kind of cases.

Objective To analyze the clinical risk factors of the occurrence of severe proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) after scleral reattachment surgery. Methods A total of 4031 eyes of 4031 consecutive patients with reghmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) and PVR (grade C1 or less), on whom the scleral buckling was performed, were retrospectively studied. Twenty-two clinical charac teristics of the patients (including the ocular tension, condition of lens and vitreous, characte ristics of retinal detachment, whether or not with choroidal detachment, et al) were recorded.In 4031 patients, 2660 were followed up for more than 3 months, and 72 (in PVR group) of the 2660 patients underwent the second surgery (vitre oretinal surgery) because of the occurrence of postoperative seve re PVR; in the other 2588 patients, 72 (72 eyes) with retinal reattachment for more than 3 months were selected randomly as the control. The data were analyzed in SPSS (10.0) software. Results Logistic regression analysis revealed that the significant risk factors for PVR were incomplete posterior vitreous detachment ( P<0.001), intraocular pressure lt;7 mm Hg(1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa, P<0.002), and large retinal tear (gt;2 DD,P<0.005). Conclusion Incomplete posterior vitreous detachment, intraocular pressure lt;7 mm Hg and large retinal tear of the patient with RRD may be the major risk factors for PVR.
