AIM: To investigate the clinic value of combined pars plana lensectomy-vitrectomy in the management of ciliary block glaucoma.

METHODS: The post-operative results of 11 hospitalized patients(11 eyes)with ciliary block glaucoma, who were managed by pars plana lensectomy-vitrectomy in our hospital, were retrospectively reviewed.

RESULTS: Post-operative ocular tension of all 11 eyes was controlled, and visual acuity was improved in various extent. Ocular tension was stable, and no serious complications were seen after a follow-up of more than 3 months(5 months in average).
