Abstract
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of vitrectomy for treatment of severe ocular trauma with no light perception. Methods 20 eyes of 20 cases of severe ocular trauma with no light perception who underwent vitrectomy in our hospital from January 2005 to October 2013 were retrospectively ana- lyzed. Postoperative follow-up was 3 months to 2 years. Results No light perception was in 6 cases and the vision was recovered to light perception to 0.12 in 14 eyes. The retinas were attached in all patients when they were discharged from the hospital. Recurrent retinal detachment happened in 2 cases after gas absorption and silicon oil was injected again. After half a year retinal detached again in 3 eyes after removal of silicon oil and silicone oil was reinjected in 2 eyes. 1 case refused reoperation for eye and received evisceration and artificial orbital implantation because of eyeball atrophy. Conclusion Eyes of severe ocular trauma with no light perception have poor prognosis,then vitrectomy can maintain the eye appearance, and restore vision to some extent.
