Mean age at CS was 61.5 years. Intraoperative complications included anterior rhexis tear (1 eye) and hyphema (1 eye). Postoperative complications included macular edema (17.2%, mean 42 days), posterior capsule opacification (13.8%, mean 14 months), ocular hypertension (11.5%), and anterior uveitis (1.1%). Preoperative mean best-corrected visual acuity improved from 20/50 to 20/25. Ninety-one percent of the eyes gained 2 or more lines, and 95% achieved visual acuity ≥20/40 after CS. Preoperative mean spherical equivalent improved from -4.35 to -0.17. Eyes with clear lens prior to the PPV had later CS (clear lens 27.1 vs no clear lens 9.7 months; p=0.016). Patients >55 years with clear lens at PPV (n=21) had earlier CS than younger ones with clear lens (n=24) (11.8 vs 40.5 months; p=0.033). Mean follow-up was 14.5 months.Conclusion: Phacoemulsification is a safe procedure in vitrectomized eyes, with substantial gains in vision in most cases. Patients of advanced age and eyes without clear lens prior to the PPV had earlier CS.
