  • Title: Anterior vitrectomy for complications of cataract extraction.
    Author: McPherson SD, Brower SA.
    Journal: Trans Am Ophthalmol Soc; 1979; 77():329-38. PubMed ID: 545829.
    Abstract:
    Our results of anterior vitrectomy in 12 patients with vitreo-corneal touch following cataract extraction, and in three patients with ghost-cell glaucoma due to vitreous hemorrhage were reported. The Machemer vitreous infusion suction cutter was used for pars plana and trans-corneal approaches. Anterior vitrectomy was effective in treating both disorders.
