Pars Plana Approach for Pupillary Membranes

Management of Complications After Cataract Surgery by the Pars Plana Approach

“…In the treatment of pupillary membranes and secondary cataracts, removal of the posterior lens capsule combined with anterior vitrectomy, will prevent recurrencies as the scaffold for repeated opacification is eliminated (Treister & Machemer 1978). However, compared with standard discission procedures, this method carries increased risks.…”

Treatment of after-cataracts via pars plana approach

“…In secondary cataract operations, the dangers revealed by the pars plana approach, both in our experience and in others published elsewhere (1,6,7,8,9) are notably less than what would have been Fig. 4.…”

Pars plana lensectomy

“…The PPL technique excludes the problems of vitreous loss in intracapsular extraction and the complications following extracapsular extraction (Diamond & Kaplan 1978). The scaffold for repeated opacifications is eliminated (Treister & Machemer 1978). The present results indicate that the PPL approach is effective and reasonably safe in patients up to 30-35 years of age.…”
