ROME —In this Healio Video Perspective from the FLORetina-ICOOR meeting, Matteo Forlini, MD, speaks about the surgeon’s choice between limited anterior vitrectomy or complete pars plana vitrectomy in case of secondary IOL implantation.

“Not an easy question, not an easy answer, but in my opinion, in my experience, I believe we can divide it into two different scenarios,” he said.

He explains what criteria should be followed to decide between the two options and how to master them in the best and safest way.
