Background: Virectomy is recognized as one of the best effective methods for removing interetinal foreign bodies, but many authors showed complications during or after removing IOFB. The purpose of our study was to show that the use of perfluorocarbon liquid minimizes complications during pars plana vitrectomy for the removal of metallic intraretinal foreign bodies (IRFBs).
Material/methods: Fourteen consecutive eyes presenting with penetrating eye injury and intraretinal foreign bodies had previously undergone vitrectomy with injection of perfluorocarbon liquids and removal of IRFBs.
