Eyes that were phakic after primary diabetic vitrectomy had a significantly higher subsequent vitreoretinal reoperation rate when compared with nonphakic eyes, suggesting that diabetic eyes are less likely to require additional vitreoretinal surgery if they are rendered nonphakic before or during vitrectomy.
