Abstract
Two different intraocular irrigating solutions were used during pars plana vitrectomy. Use of glutathione-bicarbonate-Ringer's (GBR) solution resulted in significantly fewer corneal complications and less endothelial damage when compared to lactated Ringer's solution. The visual results were disappointing.
