Abstract
To investigate the surgical outcomes and intraoperative parameters of 3D visualization system for macular diseases in highly myopic eyes. In this single-center, prospective, randomized, comparative interventional study, 40 highly myopic eyes (axial length > 26mm) were randomly assigned to either a 3D visualization system or a conventional microscope (CM) group. Surgical outcomes and intraoperative parameters, including the number of indocyanine green (ICG) injections, surgical time, and epiretinal membrane (ERM)/ internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling time, were compared. The 3D group required significantly fewer ICG injections (1.3 ± 0.5 vs. 2.3 ± 0.7, p < 0.001), had shorter ERM/ILM peeling times (522.8 ± 258.0 vs. 751.8 ± 320.2 sec, p < 0.05), and experienced fewer intraoperative retinal hemorrhages (0 vs. 7 cases, p < 0.05) compared to the CM group. Anatomical and functional outcomes were comparable between the two groups. The 3D system exhibited a lower number of ICG injections, shorter ERM/ILM peeling times and a reduced incidence of intraoperative retinal hemorrhages, suggesting the 3D visualization system may offer advantages for macular surgery in highly myopic eyes.
