Postoperative Complications Associated With 25-Gauge Pars Plana Vitrectomy

Abstract

Intraoperative and postoperative complications were rare in this series of 25-gauge PPV. Postoperative cataract progression and hypotony were the most common complications. Fluid-filled eyes appear to have a higher risk of wound leakage and postoperative hypotony after 25-gauge PPV than eyes with air or gas tamponade.
