  • Title: [Intraocular pressure during vitrectomy in diabetic patients].
    Author: Chagnon A, Payan J, Levy C, Chassain C.
    Journal: Bull Soc Ophtalmol Fr; 1989 Mar; 89(3):443-8. PubMed ID: 2598392.
    Abstract:
    23 eyes underwent vitrectomy for diabetic proliferative retinopathy complications: vitreous hemorrhage with or without tractional retinal detachment. After 6 months of follow-up, 64% of eyes had final visual acuities of 1/40 or better. Preoperative iris neovascularization and preoperative detachment of the macula have a worse prognosis. Decrease of peroperative complications is allowed by checking of intraocular pressure during vitrectomy.
