In a rural mountain setting 20 patients with blinding ocular opacities were treated surgically with modern vitrectomy techniques. There were no intraoperative or postoperative complications unique to the isolated environment. Because of its compact portability, the VISC X proved to be an ideal vitrectomy instrument. In addition to plastic lid procedures, cataract extraction, and strabismus surgery, repair of retinal detachment and vitrectomy in selected cases has been added to the armamentarium of surgeons who are seriously involved in exporting ophthalmology to remote places.
在一个乡村山区，20名患有致盲性眼混浊的患者接受了现代玻璃体切割技术的手术治疗。在这个与世隔绝的环境中，没有出现术中或术后特有的并发症。由于其紧凑便携，VISC X被证明是一种理想的玻璃体切割器械。除了眼睑整形手术、白内障摘除术和斜视手术外，视网膜脱离修复术和特定病例的玻璃体切割术也已被纳入那些积极致力于将眼科医疗服务输出到偏远地区的外科医生的手术器械库中。
