Objective To summarize the visual outcome of patients with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery. Methods Clinical data of 188(191 eyes) with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery in a period from November 1996 to April 1998 were analysed retrospectively. Results The study included penetrating injury in 56 eyes, foreign bodies in the posterior segment in 70 eyes, blunt injury in 41 eyes , and globe rupture in 24 eyes. Main complications included endophthalmitis in 35 eyes, choroidal bleeding in 20 eyes, retinal detachment in 60 eyes, and vitreous hemorrhage in 97 eyes. Post-opera-tively, out of 188 eyes, except for 3 of patients too young to examine, visual acuity improved in 133(70.7%), including 85(45.2%) with visal acuity 0.02-1.0, 46(24.5%) remained unchanged; and 9(4.8%) had worse vision. Among 34 with no-light-perception, 12 had light-perception or over. Conclusion A majority of severe trauma eyes can be salvaged with considerable visual recovery after adequate and timely vitreous surgery. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1999,15:4-6)
Seventen eyeswith complicated retinal detachment were repaired with vitrectomy,retinotomy,retinectomy or retinal suture combined with gas/fluid exchange,scleral buckle and cryotherapy.These cases include giant retinal tear with inverted retinal flap(6 eyes),severe traumatic retinal detachment(4 eyes),proliferative diabetic retinopathy(2 eyes),recurrent retinal detachmeng(3 eyes)and anterior proliferative vitreoretinopathy(2 eyes).The duration of follow up in 16 eyes was from 3 to 42 months.The retinal reattachment was in 10 eyes(62.5%),and visual acuity better than0.05 in 8 eyes(50.0%).Four eyes(25.0%)resulted in hypotony. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1996,12:7-9）
Purpose To evaluate the efficacy of vitreous surgery for treatment of fundus damages caused by ocular blunt trauma. Methods Clinical records were reviewed retrospectively for a series of consecutive 101 patients (105 eyes) with fundus damages caused by ocular blunt trauma underwent vitreous surgery from October 1992 to March 1998． Results Based on clinical examination and findings during surgery,all cases were divided into 4 subgroups:vitreous hemorrhage(VH)in 23 yes,VH with retinochoroidal rupture or optic damage in 25 eyes,traumatic retinal detachment in 46 eyes,and retinal giant tear in 11 eyes.Vision acuity improvement achieved in 77 eyes(73.3%)and of them 69 eyes(65．7%)had 0.02～0．6with 38 eyes(55．0%)better than 0．1.Two eye s with no light perception obtained better than 0.1． Visual acuity remained unchanged in 26 eyes(24.8%)and 2 eyes(1.9%)became worse after operation．The retina reattached in 54 eyes(94.7%). Conclusion Severe ocular blunt trauma may cause visual impairment and various fundus damages.Appropriate vitreous surgery can salvage most eyes with those injuries.

Objective To probe the clinical feature and complications of extraction of silicon oil after operation of simple rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in child patients. Methods The clinical materials of 22 patients (22 eyes) of child patients (5~14 years old) and 11 cases (11 eyes) of adult patients with simple rhegmatogenous retinal detachment undergone surgical treatment and subsequent retraction of silicon oil tampon, were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively. The reasons of extraction silicon tampon, ocular complications of intrao cular silicon tamponade and the changes of visual acuity pre- and post-extraction of silicon tamponade in above 2 groups were explored. Results The main reason for the extraction and complications of silicon oil tamponade were similar in both groups. The rate of occurrence of the complications in either group rose as time went on . There was no significant difference in change of visual acuity between two groups after the extraction of silicon oil tampon. Conclusion The responses to silicon oil after the operation for simple rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is quite similar in either children or adult patients,and there is no obvious difference between child and adult patients in the results of silicon oil extraction.

Objective To evaluate the anatomical and functional results of retinotomy in treatment of complicated retinal detachment. Methods Twenty-three eyes were treated with retinectomy during vitrectomy for complicated retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy when complete reattachment of retina was not obtained despite careful mambrane peeling. After released the peripheral vitreoretinal contraction or pulled subretinal membranes, perfluorocarbon liquid injection, laser retinopexy and silicone oil tamponade were performed. Retinotomy size ranged from 30-degree to 360-degree (average 132-degree). Results Retinal attachment were obtained in all of the operated eyes at the end of the operation. Silicone oil was removed from 15 eyes (65．0%) within 3～11 months postoperatively. After a minimum follow-up of 6 months, the retinae were completely attached in 17 eyes ( silicone oil was not removed in 4 eyes ) and visual acuity of 0.02 or better was obtained in 11 eye (48．0%). Recurrent retinal detachment occurred in 2 eyes in which the silicone oil had been removed. The major complications were recurrence of the proliferation in 6 eyes (26．0%) and hypotony in 3 eyes (13．0%). Conclusion Retinotomy is beneficial to reattach the retina for eyes with advanced proliferative vitreoretinopathy in seemin gly inoperable cases. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,2001,17:87-89)
Objective To investigate the technique of drain-air, cryotherapy, and explant (DACE) of operation for superior bullous retinal detachment (SBRD).Methods In the DACE procedure, drainage and air or balanced salt soultion (BSS) injection were carried out first, with the intention of flattening the retina before localization of retinal hole, cryotherapy out of choroid and scleral buckling.Results In 42 SBRD eyes, 40 underwent the operation with DACE technique. In 23 eyes injected with BSS instead of air, 5 should be injected air due to no avail for flattening deeply retinal detachment, and 1 needed scleral buckling due to new retinal tear after DACE procedure two weeks. During the follow-up, all retinae attached. Conclusions The DACE technique is very useful and effective in upper ballooned retinal detachment due to single hole or breaks localized in small area between the 10 and 2 o′clock meridiant. BSS instead of air injection can eliminate the difficulty of observation of retinal breaks from the presence of air in some cases. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis，2003，19：11-13)
