Presented are early and late results of treatment of extensive perforating eye injuries treated by vitrectomy immediately after the patient reported for a hospital treatment. For comparison--a similar group of patients with corresponding posttraumatic lesions was selected; they were treated by traditional methods and in some cases also by vitrectomy but performed only for the treatment of late complications. The results obtained confirm the necessity of early vitrectomy as a method of reconstruction of the anatomical conditions after an extensive perforating injury.
