Vitrectomy Surgery In Surat​

In Surat, vitrectomy is the most common surgery performed to correct vision problems. The operation is done by removing a section of the vitreous humor, or clear fluid that fills the eye. This fluid can become cloudy or hazy due to disease or injury and can cause vision problems.

Vitrectomy is usually performed to treat a number of conditions, including age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy, and retinal detachment. The surgery is also used to remove blood clots and other foreign objects from the eye.

A vitrectomy may be done as an outpatient procedure or under general anesthesia. After the surgery, patients may experience discomfort and blurred vision for a few days. Most people regain full vision within a few weeks, although some may experience some minor short-term side effects.

Types of Vitrectomy

The three main types of vitrectomy are 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 two-thirds of all cases. 

TSV is less common but offers some advantages, such as the ability to perform the surgery through a small incision in the lower lid without stitches.

Endoscopic subretinal or epiretinal approaches are becoming increasingly popular due to their low morbidity and relatively short recovery time.

Vitrectomy Surgery Cost In Surat

The cost of vitrectomy surgery in Surat can vary depending on the type of surgery required. The cost of vitrectomy surgery in Surat 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 55,000. 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:
