Vitrectomy Surgery In Pune​

When an eye doctor in Pune recommends a vitrectomy, they are referring to a surgical procedure to remove the cloudy lens that is obstructing your vision. Vitrectomy surgery is often recommended for people who have advanced cataracts and cannot see clearly with their eyes. 

A vitrectomy is a minimally-invasive surgery that uses a small, sharp surgical tool to break up and remove the clouded lens from your eye. The procedure usually takes about 30 minutes and is done under local anesthesia.

If you are considering a vitrectomy, be sure to ask your doctor about the risks and benefits of this procedure. Many patients experience excellent outcomes after successful vitrectomy surgery.

Types of Vitrectomy

There are three main 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 in approximately 70-80% of cases. 

TSV is less common but has the advantage of not requiring stitches. 

Endoscopic subretinal or epiretinal approaches are becoming more popular, as they have a low complication rate and allow for very flexible surgical approaches.

Vitrectomy Surgery Cost In Pune

The cost of vitrectomy surgery in Pune can vary depending on the type of surgery required. The cost of vitrectomy surgery in Pune 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. This increase the cost to 50000. Similarly, if the retinal detachment is high, the surgeon might use silicone oil or gas tamponade to temporary fill in the eye and settle the retina. This further increase the cost to 60000. Below is the average cost of different type of vitrectomy procedures:
