OBJECTIVE: To review available peer-reviewed publications to evaluate the safety profile
and visual outcomes associated with small-gauge pars plana vitrectomy. METHODS …

Small gauge vitrectomy utilizing 23-and 25-gauge instrumentation has definite advantages,
but also limitations, due to the physics of smaller instruments and sutureless surgery. Higher …
