Vitrectomy Surgery In Guntur​

Vitrectomy surgery is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that is commonly used to treat severe cases of macular degeneration (MD). During vitrectomy, the surgeon uses a laser to cut out a section of the retina. This allows the damaged areas of the retina to be removed and treated. 

The main reason why vitrectomy surgery is necessary is that MD is an eye disease that destroys the retina. The damage to the retina can cause blurry vision, decreased sight in one or both eyes, and even blindness. Vitrectomy surgery can help restore some degree of vision for people with MD by removing the damaged area of the retina. 

If you are experiencing any type of vision problem, it is important to visit an eye doctor in Guntur as soon as possible.

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, and it is performed using a surgical microscope to remove the entire vitreous cavity. 

TSV is a variation of PPV that uses small, sterile stitches to close the hole in the retina caused by the surgery. 

Endoscopic subretinal or epiretinal approach is a newer type of vitrectomy that uses an endoscope to access the subretinal space directly.

Vitrectomy Surgery Cost In Guntur

The cost of vitrectomy surgery in Guntur can vary depending on the type of surgery required. The cost of vitrectomy surgery in Guntur varies between ₹20,000 to ₹80,000. Anterior Vitrectomy in front portion of the eye costs around 24000. Simple posterior vitrectomy involves suction / removal of the vitreous gel or blood from the back portion of the eye and costs around 40,000. However, in certain cases, Endolaser is used to burn the bleeding retinal blood vessels.
