Retinal and Vitreous Surgery

Retinal and vitreous surgery is a type of eye surgery that focuses on treating problems in the inner parts of the eye, specifically the retina (the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye) and the vitreous (the gel-like substance filling the eye). Surgeons perform these procedures to fix issues like retinal detachment, tears, or bleeding, which can threaten vision. The surgery often involves delicate tools and techniques to carefully repair the retina and remove any abnormal tissue or fluids, helping to restore or preserve the patient's eyesight.
