Résumé / Abstract

■ BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of cataract extraction and lens implantation at the time of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for macular hole (MH) repair. ■ MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted of 21 eyes that had PPV for MH combined with cataract extraction and lens implantation. Visual acuities (VA) were followed and complications noted. ■ RESULTS: Of 21 eyes, successful anatomic closure was achieved in 16 (76.2%), and 13 (62.0%) improved in VA by at least 2 Snellen lines. Few complications occurred. ■ CONCLUSION: Procedures that combine PPV for MH with cataract extraction and lens implantation decrease the need for future ophthalmic surgery, allow for clearer intraoperative visualization, and facilitate visual rehabilitation. This combined procedure is a relatively safe and effective alternative to separate pars plana and cataract surgeries.
