Abstract
Complete vitreous removal is mandatory for successful vitreoretinal surgery performed for any indication: retinal detachment, macular hole [1], epiretinal membrane [2], and vitreous hemorrhage [3]. Accuracy in vitreous removal is indeed crucial to avoid tractional forces in the vitreous cavity that could lead to rhegmatogenous detachment or recurrence [4]. Many techniques have been developed to perform vitrectomy phases and several surgical instruments and vitreous substitutes have been introduced to optimize the vitreous removal and retina stabilization to reduce complications.
