Abstract:

Objective:To explore the common reasons and operation effects of posterior intraocular foreign bodies injury in western Yunnan. Methods:A retrospectively analysis was conducted on 86 patients (92 eyes). Among 92eyes,35 eyes received posterior route extraction and 57 eyes received vitrectomy extraction. Results:Impact injury and bomb injury were the main reasons of eye injury in western Yunnan. The successful rate of vitrectomy (96.5%,55/57)was higher than that of posterior route extraction (85.71% 30/35)(P<0.01). Meanwhile,the postoperative visual acuity of vitrectomy groups was much better than that of posterior route extraction group. Conclusions:Vitrectomy is an ideal way for extraction of eposterior intraocular foreign bodies.
