25G Vitrectomy for Macular Pucker

Steven Cohen, MD, MPH

Show Description +

Steven Cohen, MD, MPH, shows a vitrectomy procedure for a macular pucker in a 65-year-old female with 20/50 vision for about a year. Surgery was performed with 25 gauge instruments which made the surgery slightly easier and safer. When removing a macular pucker, one must be careful not to shred the tissue or put too much traction on the retina. Vision improved to 20/25 one week after surgery.
