Vitrectomy

A vitrectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that can address vitreous and retinal issues. During a vitrectomy, your surgeon will extract the vitreous humor, the gel-like material that fills the middle of your eye, to be able to reach the backside of your eye.

There is a wide variety of eye diseases that call for a vitrectomy and depending on the underlying pathology your surgeon will treat you accordingly. At the end of the surgery, the eye will be filled with a solution, gas, or oil.
