About Vitrectomy

Vitrectomy surgery is the procedure of removing vitreous gel from the eye. The vitreous can be removed for a variety of reasons. The most common reason is to access your retina. The procedure allows the doctor to address the issues that are affecting the patient’s vision and preserve it.

The retina is the eye component that sends signals from the brain to the eye. If it is damaged or has some other problem, the light cannot reach the retina, and the patient cannot see. If you’ve been having serious vision problems due to retinal disorders, get in touch with the best eye specialists to undergo vitrectomy surgery in Raipur at a reasonable price.

Treatment

As vitrectomy is performed for various reasons, several tests are recommended before the procedure. These tests may include a visual exam, fundus photography, retinal vessel analysis, optical coherence tomography (OCT), etc. Other than these tests, a CT scan or MRI of the eye may also be suggested depending on the severity of the disorder.

The steps involved in vitrectomy will vary for each patient (depending on the eye condition that is being treated). The steps are explained below-

  • Local or general anesthesia is administered to numb the eyes.
  • A lid speculum is placed in the eye to hold it open.
  • The surgeon makes an incision in the white part of the eye (sclera) to access the internal eye components.
  • The vitreous humor is removed entirely or partially to extract the scar tissues or foreign materials.
  • If the retina has a tear, hole, or swelling, the tear/hole is closed with laser or cryopexy to reattach the retinal tissues.
  • In some cases, a gas bubble may be inserted to keep the retinal tissues in place.
  • The vitreous humor is replaced with saline or silicone oil.
  • After the eye problems are resolved, the surgeon closes the incision using stitches.
  • The eye is cleaned, and an antibiotic ointment is applied. The eye is then covered with a patch.
  • The same steps are repeated on the other eye as required.

The entire procedure takes around 30 to 40 minutes, and the patient is discharged on the same day. In most cases, the progression of the disease is different in both eyes. Thus, the surgery is usually performed on one eye at a time. The surgery for the second eye is usually scheduled a month later or when the first eye has healed completely.
