title: [Has surgery of the vitreous evolved?].
abstract: Three ports pars plana vitrectomy has been described 50 years ago. From indications to salvage the peripheral retina function, it has progressively shifted towards functional indications in macular pathologies, trying initially to stabilize and now to improve visual acuity. This has been achieved by improvement, not only of surgical material but also of microscopes, intraoperative rools such as perfluorocarbone liquids and more recently the use of vital dyes.
