Posterior segment changes, optical coherence tomography scans, fundus autofluorescence images, and fundus fluorescein angiography findings of patients were evaluated and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) was performed on 3 eyes of three patients. All eyes operated after 6 months from the date of injury and final visual acuities were 20/200, 20/60 and 20/30. PPV is found as a safe and effective procedure for vitreous hemorrhage in TS. Delayed surgery in a young patient predicts a worse outcome.
