description This study aimed to report the risk factors and treatment outcomes of visually disturbing vitreous opacities after neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser posterior capsulotomy. This was a retrospective observational case series study that included 6 patients who underwent vitrectomy for vitreous opacities after Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy. The patients’ medical records from January 2017 to June 2020 were reviewed. Seven eyes of 6 patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy for visually disturbing vitreous opacities were included in this study. The mean duration between Nd:YAG capsulotomy and vitrectomy was 8.57 ± 1.27 months. The posterior capsule opacification was proliferative with a pearl form in all patients. Visual acuity improved significantly after vitrectomy. Nd:YAG laser causes visually disturbing vitreous opacities. Vitrectomy was an effective treatment for these opacities.
