Outcomes of macular hole surgeries for macular telangiectasia type 2.

Purpose: To describe surgical outcomes of macular telangiectasia (MacTel) Type 2 associated full-thickness macular holes (FTMH) in 4 patients and to review the literature.

Methods: Retrospective interventional case series with a review of medical records, including optical coherence tomography.

Results: One eye of each patient underwent pars plana vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane peeling, gas tamponade, and prone positioning.

Transconjunctival 20-gauge vitrectomy outcomes.

Background And Objective: To investigate the short-term complication profile of the transconjunctival 20-gauge trocar-cannula (20g-TCV) system.

Patients And Methods: Patients who underwent primary 20g-TCV without history of prior vitrectomy were included. The primary outcome was incidence of short-term hypotony.

Intraoperative ketorolac and eye pain after viteoretinal surgery: a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled study.

Purpose: To compare the efficacy of one intraoperative dose of intravenous ketorolac tromethamine to saline placebo in controlling postoperative eye pain, nausea, and sedation following vitreoretinal surgery.

Study Design: Prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial.

Methods: One hundred fourteen vitreoretinal surgical patients were randomized over a 7-month period to a single intraoperative intravenous dose of ketorolac tromethamine or placebo.
