Retinotomy and retinectomy for anterior inferior proliferative vitreoretinopathy: Can visual outcome be improved?

An appropriate and timely intervention, including vitrectomy alone, inferior relaxing retinotomy/retinectomy and standard SO tamponade provide satisfactory outcomes for RDs complicated by PVR. Lesser extension of grade C PVR at baseline, such as PVR limited to one quadrant should encourage vitreoretinal specialists to consider retinotomy/retinectomy at a milder clinical stage of PVR development.
