Abstract
AIM: To evaluate the efficacy and complications of 25G posterior capsulotomy with anterior vitrectomy for posterior capsule opacification(PCO).

METHODS: The 25G transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy technique was performed in 48 cases(68 eyes)of PCO eyes. The mean follow-up was 24mo. Best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA), intraocular pressure, anterior chamber reaction and complications during and after the operation were observed.

RESULTS: 4mm diameter round holes were obtained at the center of the posterior capsule in all eyes. At 1d postoperative, uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA)was 0.70±0.12(0.5-1.0), and BCVA was 0.73±0.10(0.6-1.0). At 3mo postoperative, UCVA was 0.72±0.12(0.5-1.0), and BCVA was 0.74±0.10(0.6-1.0). It was statistical significance between preoperative and postoperative UCVA(t=-45.902, P=0.000). There were no complications during the postoperative follow-up period, such as dislocation or damage of the IOL, corneal edema, endoophthalmitis, pupil vitreous hernia, vitreous prolapse, retina detachment, intraocular hypertension and reocclusion of the visual axis, etc.

CONCLUSION: The 25G transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy technique to remove PCO is a safe and effective procedure with less complications, which can be an alternative treatment for PCO.
