We assessed the efficacy of vitrectomy for diabetic macular edema by performing vitrectomy unilaterally in 7 patients. All the 7 patients had the same degree of diabetic macular edema in both eyes. They were followed up for 5 months or more. In operated eyes, the mean foveal thickness, or the distance between the inner foveal surface and the retinal pigment epithelium, decreased significantly from 630 μm to 280 μm (p< 0.05). In fellow eyes, it decreased from 590 μm to 490 μm with no significant difference. Postoperative visual acuity in 7 operated eyes improved by 2 lines or more in 3 eyes (43%), remained unchanged in 3 (43%), and decreased in 1 (14%). In the 7 fellow eyes, it improved in 1 eye (14%). remained unchanged in 2 (29%), and decreased in 4(57%) . These findings show that vitrectomy is effective for diabetic macular edema.
