Pars plana phacoemulsification allows cataract extraction through a 3 mm posterior sclerotomy. The indications of these technics are the combined cataract-vitrectomy, the cataracts on vitrectomised eyes and cataracts on eyes filled with silicone oil. The alteration of corneal endothelium is very reduced with the endocapsular pars plana phacoemulsification. After the emulsification, the capsular bag is extracted with a microforceps through the pars plana. It is also possible to save the anterior capsule to reduce corneal alteration during endocular surgery. We present the indications and the advantages of these technics.

Retinology Institute, Melbourne, Australia.
To compare the postoperative outcomes after combined phacovitrectomy for epiretinal membrane and cataract (combined group) vs standalone phacoemulsification (control group). A systematic literature search of Ovid MEDLINE, CINAHL, and the Cochrane Library was performed. The primary outcomes were the refractive predictive error and mean absolute error expressed as the spherical equivalent.

Introduction: The aim of the study was to evaluate clinical and biometric factors leading to a prediction error related to lens position in pars plana vitrectomy.
Methods: This study was conducted as a consecutive retrospective case series at the Department of Ophthalmology, Montpellier University Hospital. All medical files and PCI biometrical reports from a single surgeon were reviewed from 2017 to 2019.

Background: This study aimed to report and recall a simple method to remove the lens capsule ab externo when performing intrascleral fixation of an intracapsular intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation with reuse of the IOL.
Case Presentation: A 43-year-old Japanese male patient underwent pars plana vitrectomy, phacoemulsification, and IOL fixation for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in the right eye 10 years prior. A 3-piece IOL was intraocularly fixed during the initial procedure.

Purpose: To evaluate the outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for full thickness macular holes (FTMH) in ocular Behçet's disease.
Methods: Eyes with FTMH as confirmed on optical coherence tomography in patients with active ocular Behçet's disease (AOBD) were included in this study. These eyes underwent PPV, epiretinal membrane (ERM) removal, internal limiting membrane (ILM) peel, and a tamponade injection.
Visual Outcomes Following Non-Diffractive Extended-Depth-of-Focus Intraocular Lens Implantation in Patients with Epiretinal Membrane in One Eye and Bilateral Cataracts.

OMIQ Research, c/Tamarit 39, 08205 Sabadell, Barcelona, Spain.
Background/objectives: This study aimed to characterize the visual performance in patients with bilateral cataracts and a unilateral epiretinal membrane (ERM) undergoing cataract surgery with non-diffractive extended depth of focus (EDoF) intraocular lens (IOL) placement in both eyes and phacovitrectomy in the eye with ERM.
Methods: This was a prospective, descriptive, single-arm study. Visual outcomes were measured in monocular and binocular conditions in patients with bilateral cataracts and unilateral ERM stages 2 or 3 implanted with an EDoF IOL.
