Article Description

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of foldable capsular vitreous body (FCVB) implant surgery in silicone oil-dependent eyes. Methods: A total of 22 participants with silicone oil-dependent eyes who received treatment with FCVB implant surgery between January 2019 and June 2020 were included in this retrospective study. The intraocular pressure (IOP), best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), demographic data, and any recorded complications were evaluated. Results: The postoperative IOP (12.73±4.20 mmHg) was significantly improved (P=0.03) compared to the preoperative IOP (10.23±3.69 mmHg) (the main endpoint). There was no significant difference (P=0.33) in the final BCVA preoperation and 3rd month postoperation (the secondary endpoint). The most common postoperative complication was hyphema. Other common postoperative complications included corneal opacity, a shallow anterior chamber, and a low IOP. Conclusion: FCVB implant surgery is a safe and effective method for treating silicone oil-dependent eyes; however, attention should be paid to the prevention and timely treatment of complications.
