Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Late vitreous hemorrhage in postvitrectomized diabetic eyes may be due to fibrovascular tuft formation in sclerotomy sites. Cryotherapy of sclerotomy sites may prevent bleeding by regressing the fibrovascular tuft. This study will detect the safety and efficacy of cryotherapy of sclerotomy sites for prevention of late vitreous hemorrhage in vitrectomized diabetic eyes.
