Clinical observation on preservation of lens anterior capsule in reduction of complications associated with silicone oil.

PURPOSE: To observe the effect of preservation of anterior capsule on the incidence of complications associated with silicone oil. METHODS: 82 patients (82 eyes) accepted trans pars plana vitrectomy (TPPV) combined with lensectomy of whom, 30 eyes with preservation of anterior capsule (PAC) and 52 eyes with no preservation of anterior capsule (NPAC). Analysis of the incidence of complications associated with use of oil. RESULTS: The incidence rate was 50.0% in NPAC group, and 23.3% in PAC group (P < 0.025). There were secondary glaucoma (21.1%), band keratopathy (13.5%) and corneal decompensation (9.6%) in NPAC group, while there was none of them in PAC group. CONCLUSIONS: Preservation of anterior capsule is an effective method to reduce the complications associated with silicone oil.[1]
