Vitrectomy Surgery In Allahabad​

If you are looking for a surgical procedure to improve your vision, a vitrectomy may be the option for you. Vitrectomy is a surgery that removes the cloudy lens that can obstruct your vision. For this procedure, a small telescope is inserted into your eye and used to remove the cloudy lens.

There are several benefits to having a vitrectomy. First, it can help improve your vision by removing the obstruction caused by the cloudy lens. Second, it is an outpatient procedure which means you can go home after the surgery and resume your normal routine. Third, vitrectomy is a minimally invasive surgery which means less pain and fewer side effects than other types of surgeries.

If you are considering a vitrectomy, please speak with your doctor about your options. They will be able to recommend the best procedure for you based on your individual situation and goals.

Types of Vitrectomy

There are three types of vitrectomy: pars plana vitrectomy (PPV), transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy (TSV), and endoscopic subretinal or epiretinal approach. 

PPV is the most common type of vitrectomy, performed approximately 80% of the time. 

TSV is a less common technique that involves cutting a hole in the middle of the cornea and inserting a small telescope into the eye to remove the vitreous. 

Endoscopic subretinal or epiretinal approach is a newer technique that uses an endoscope to enter the eye through the pupil and remove the vitreous without damaging the retina.
