Retinal Surgeries

Retinal surgeries are specialized procedures performed at Desai Eye Hospital to treat a variety of retinal conditions that can threaten vision, such as retinal detachment, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and retinal tears. These surgeries aim to repair damage, reattach the retina, and preserve or restore vision, depending on the severity of the condition.

The type of surgery performed depends on the specific problem and its location in the retina. Common retinal surgeries include:

Vitrectomy: This involves removing the vitreous gel from the eye to allow access to the retina for repairs, such as removing scar tissue or treating retinal tears.

Retinal Detachment Surgery: Procedures like pneumatic retinopexy, scleral buckling, or vitrectomy may be used to reattach the retina and prevent further complications.

Laser Therapy: Used to treat retinal tears, leaks, or abnormal blood vessel growth, typically in conditions like diabetic retinopathy.

These procedures are performed by highly skilled retinal specialists using advanced technology to ensure the best outcomes. At Desai Eye Hospital, we focus on providing personalized care, with a thorough pre-surgery assessment and post-operative follow-up to ensure proper healing and optimal vision restoration.

How Does It Work?

Retinal surgeries address conditions like detachment, macular holes, and diabetic retinopathy.
Procedures include vitrectomy, scleral buckle, and pneumatic retinopexy.
Vitrectomy removes vitreous gel to access and repair the retina.
Scleral buckle surgery uses a band to support the retina and prevent detachment.

Pneumatic retinopexy involves injecting a gas bubble to reattach the retina.
Local or general anesthesia ensures patient comfort during these procedures.
Retinal surgeries restore vision and prevent further eye damage.
Post-operative care includes regular monitoring to ensure successful healing.
