Improved Visual Outcomes after Severe Open Globe Injuries Associated with Perioperative Vitreoretinal Evaluation

Automatic perioperative evaluation by a vitreoretinal surgeon was associated with a higher rate of PPV and improved visual outcomes. Prompt evaluation by a vitreoretinal surgeon, either pre-operatively or in the early post-operative period, should be considered, when logistically feasible, in severe OGIs because PPV is frequently indicated and may result in significant visual improvement.
