Vitrectomy surgery involves the removal of some or all of the vitreous humour or fluid from the eye and its replacement. The treatment is considered to be quite successful, and it is frequently performed in conjunction with other eye surgeries.
Vitrectomy treatments are commonly performed to enable surgeons access to the back of the eye during retinal surgery. It's also used to drain vitreous fluid that has turned cloudy or bloody, or is clogged with floaters or tissue clumps.
Common reasons for a vitrectomy surgery, and other surgeries associated with it include:
Vitrectomy alone cures only a few disorders. At least one extra procedure is usually linked with vitrectomies.
Vitrectomy is sometimes paired with scleral buckling, a surgery that involves stitching a piece of silicone sponge, rubber, or semi-hard plastic onto the sclera or placing a band around the eye to reduce retinal traction in eyes with retinal detachment. It can be difficult to perform vitrectomy in eyes that have been damaged by trauma or in critically preterm newborns with retinopathy of prematurity.
You may be recommended vitrectomy if you experience the following conditions:
We at IndiCure completely understand your concerns and it is always our endeavor to provide the best outcome for every patient. Following is the list of questions you must ask before you embark on your journey for vitrectomy with retinal detachment in India.
Prepare to answer questions about your:
Three little holes (ports) are drilled into the white (sclera) of your eye to begin the procedure. The first permits a continuous flow of fluid into your eye, known as a 'infusion.' The second port is for inserting a specific fibre-optic 'light pipe' to offer illumination to your eye, while the third is for all other tools that require access to the eye during the surgery, such as a 'cutter' for vitreous removal.
After that, cryotherapy will be used. The fluid in your eye will then be replaced with air, and you may hear a whistling sound as this occurs. At the end of the operation, this air will be replaced with a gas, which is commonly C3F8 or SF6.
To offer a protective covering, a pad and shield will be placed over your eye at the conclusion of the operation.
The results are gratifying after the surgery. Advances in instrumentation, techniques, and understanding of diseases of the vitreous and retina have made vitrectomy quite successful. Surgery for diseases that were once incurable, such as macular hole, is now routinely performed with excellent results.
Vitrectomy operations are frequently performed in conjunction with other eye surgeries, therefore recovery times and recommendations vary.
Driving, reading, and exercise are all things that should be avoided for a few days after the surgery.
To assist the eyes heal properly, some people will be advised to rest face down for a period of time. Eye drops are frequently administered to aid in the prevention of infection and the reduction of irritation. The overall recuperation time for vitrectomy surgery is usually between 4 and 6 weeks.
Vitrectomy surgery is a safe and successful technique with few serious consequences. Most operations, according to the American Society of Retina Specialists, have a 90% success rate.
Depending on the problem being treated, a vitrectomy might take anywhere from one to several hours. It could be the first of a series of steps to resolving a problem. You can choose to stay awake and receive numbing drops or shots in your eye.
Vitrectomy is a fairly safe and successful surgery if done by a trained surgeon in a well equipped facility.
Unless the patient is in poor condition or has a serious ailment, nearly all vitrectomies are performed as outpatient procedures in a hospital or a dedicated ambulatory surgery center; they are painless and require relatively minimum anesthetic.
Through a small incision (vitrectomy), an ophthalmologist removes the vitreous and replaces it with a solution that helps your eye maintain its shape. Surgery may not be able to remove all of the floaters, and sometimes more floaters may form as a result of the procedure.
Patients who have vitreo-retinal surgery for a macular hole must lie face down for 14 days; patients with other conditions just need to lie down for 5 days.

Both of us were very pleased with the professional care provided to us from the first email to enquiry to the moment we stepped foot in India. We have never received such wonderful hospitality and always attending to our needs. We would both certainly recommend Indicure for any treatments and/or surgeries. We have been utterly amazed at what India has to offer and will definitely visit again.

My son had the gastric sleeve in Delhi last September 2017. A year later my son is a different young man. Our reason for traveling from Australia, was his age being 14. You saved my sons life and I will be forever grateful for that, the care and service was immaculate. yes it can be a culture shock, in your another country. But it not any less of what we would have received here.
Thank you

Dr. Ruchika in India delivered efficient and professional service from the outset, matching up my weight and health concerns with the most amazing surgeon at the Apollo Spectra hospital in New Delhi, who made good all the promises that had been made, and MORE. All arrangements were executed seamlessly. Very glad I found them and will certainly be using them again, should the need arise.

The IndiCure folks (Jagruti) hooked me up with THE BEST doctors for my heart issues. Period. The Physicians were thorough, professional, fast, proficient and affordable. Dealing with Indicure was super easy, super fast and a very pleasant experience. I HIGHLY recommend this process for those with no insurance or those who cannot afford the 20% co-pay for expensive procedures. Check the cost against prices in the USA folks.
