A specialized procedure that treats disorders of the retina and vitreous, the gel-like substance inside the eye. Conditions such as retinal detachment, macular holes, and diabetic retinopathy often require this delicate surgery to restore or preserve vision and prevent further damage to the back of the eye.
The surgery involves repairing a retina that has pulled away from its normal position at the back of the eye. This sight-threatening condition requires prompt treatment to prevent permanent vision loss. Surgical methods include pneumatic retinopexy, scleral buckle, or vitrectomy, depending on the severity and location of the detachment.
