Aim: To investigate the difference in postoperative Anterior Chamber Depth (ACD) following phacovitrectomy depending on the type of the vitreoretinal diseases, measured using optical biometry.
Methods: We investigated 14 eyes of 14 patients (11 males, 3 females; mean age 59.4 ± 8.4 years) with Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment (RRD) without macular involvement who underwent phacovitrectomy (RRD group), 14 eyes of 14 patients (10 males, 4 females; mean age 68.4 ± 4.7 years) with a macular hole (MH) who underwent phacovitrectomy (MH group), 24 eyes of 24 patients (14 males, 10 females; mean age 66.5 ± 7.6 years) with Epi Retinal Membrane (ERM) who underwent phacovitrectomy (ERM group), and 42 eyes of 29 patients (15 males, 14 females; mean age 71.4 ± 11.8 years) without macular disease who underwent cataract surgery..
