Endothelial Cell Changes After Pars Plana Vitrectomy: A Cross-Sectional Study in a Tertiary Care Center
Corneal endothelial cells are substantially influenced by PPV, which is significantly evident by the continuous reduction in ECD following surgery. The analysis calls attention to a careful and proper post-operative observation of corneal well-being is therefore required to alleviate likely endothelial damage along with the necessity of deliberate thinking while opting for the surgical techniques. The main focus of future studies should be on how to improve the current practices involving surgical procedures to ensure minimizing the loss of endothelial cells.
