Incidence of secondary PBG after VR surgery was .87%, and we observed diabetes mellitus, combined cataract and VR surgery, use of 1000cs SO endotamponade, intraoperative endolaser and multiple VR surgical interventions as common associations. Majority of the patients with PBG after VR procedures resolved with LPI and medical management. Few individuals (18%) required additional laser or surgical intervention for IOP control.
