Methods: In this retrospective consecutive case series, 17 eyes of 17 patients with retained lens fragments after complicated cataract surgery and managed by using 23-G transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy were evaluated between January 2007 and March 2009 at our institution.
Results: Mean follow-up time was 8.
To evaluate the topographic changes of cornea after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with the 23-gauge- (23-G) transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy (TSV) system within the first postoperative month. In this prospective study, corneal topographic changes were evaluated in 24 eyes of 24 patients who underwent PPV with the 23-G TSV system. All eyes underwent computer-assisted videokeratography using NAVIS (Nidek Advanced Vision Information System) software preoperatively and at the first day, first week, and first month postoperatively.

Methods: Eleven eyes with resolved macular edema following PPV with internal limiting membrane removal for DME were included in this retrospective study. The integrity of the external limiting membrane (ELM) and inner and outer segments (IS/OS) of the photoreceptor junction was evaluated by spectral domain optical coherence tomography.
