Özet

Advances in vitreoretinal surgery have resulted in better anatomical and visual outcomes in open eye injuries. However, the timing of vitrectomy has been a point of controversy for decades. The main reason for the discussion is that each trauma case has a distinct spectrum of clinical findings. The benefits and drawbacks of current surgical approaches to determining the timing of vitrectomy will be discussed in this review.
