Mike, I’ve never had that procedure, but I’ve had a couple of extra holes zapped into my eyes via lazer.  (The shape of my eyes were ripe for acute onset glaucoma.)  My only complaint was that I had a headacke for a couple of days, and the extra strong diuretic made carbonated drinks taste like metal for a couple of days. Good luck to you. Steph

I had a vitrectomy in one eye under general, and the other under local.  No problem with either.  I had lens implants in both eye a couple of years later, again local. One eye no problems the other I had a scratched cornea that got infected.  Took several months to clear up and heal.  No experience with vitrectomy and lens implant at the same time.  If it is an experienced Dr, I would expect a high probablility of no problems.
