Vitreous Detachments after Phacoemulsification Surgery
I enjoyed reading the informative paper by Hikichi and have a single simple question regarding this important information. The data: Retinal tears occurred in 6.4% of eyes after development of a posterior vitreous detachment. These tears were significantly more common (15.4%) in the 52 eyes with lattice degeneration than in cases (2.5%) without these degenerative lesions.
