Abstract
Combined transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy and phacoemulsification was effective and safe in managing simultaneous cataract and vitreoretinal pathology. The self-sealing incisions did not adversely affect the overall surgical or visual outcomes, led to faster visual rehabilitation, and reduced ocular inflammation. The use of air tamponade when no long-term endotamponade was necessary appeared to reduce the risk for hypotony.
