Vitrectomy

A vitrectomy is an outpatient surgical procedure that is used as a treatment for many eye conditions, including retinal detachment, macular hole, macular pucker, diabetic retinopathy, macular edema, vitreous hemorrhage, neovascularization, uveitis, and macular degeneration. A vitrectomy involves removing the vitreous gel from the inside of the eye. The vitreous may be replaced with an air bubble or silicone oil to promote healing and protect the retina. The Retina Specialists at the Retina Group of Florida are experts at state-of-the-art vitrectomy procedures.
