Abstract
In the present study, we investigated the effect of optical coherence tomography (OCT) three-dimensional reconstruction-assisted 23G micro-invasive vitrectomy (abbreviated to'23G') in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). A total of 66 PDR patients (66 eyes) were continuously selected and randomly divided into the control and observation groups with 33 patients in each group. Patients in the control group were treated with routine OCT examination while the patients in the observation group were treated with OCT three-dimensional retinal reconstruction. The 23G surgical method was applied to the two groups, and a comparison was made on the clinical effects in the two groups. The follow-up visits lasted for approximately 6 months, and it was found that the operative time, occurrence rate of intraoperative complications and postoperative complications as shown in the observation group were significantly less than those in the control group (P<0.05). The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was improved, the intraocular pressure was increased and retinal thickness was decreased after the treatment. The BCVA of patients in the observation group was significantly greater than that of patients in the control group while the intraocular pressure and retinal thickness of patients in the observation group were significantly less than those of patients in the control group (P<0.05). In conclusion, the effect of 23G surgical method in PDR patients can be improved and corresponding complications can be reduced under the assistance of OCT three-dimensional reconstruction.
