Surgical Retina Treatments

Surgical intervention may be necessary in certain cases. We utilize advanced techniques to minimize recovery time and maximize results.

1. Vitrectomy: This procedure removes vitreous gel from the eye to treat conditions such as retinal detachment, macular holes, and bleeding. Post-operative care instructions are detailed.
2. Retinal Detachment Repair: We utilize various surgical techniques to reattach the retina, including scleral buckling and vitrectomy, based on the specific type of detachment.
3. Macular Hole Surgery: This often involves vitrectomy and may include gas or oil tamponade to facilitate healing.

Diagnostic Services

• Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT): High-resolution imaging provides detailed scans of your retinal layers. This is crucial for diagnosis and monitoring of treatment.
• Fluorescein Angiography: This dye-based imaging technique helps visualize blood vessels in the retina, aiding in the diagnosis of various conditions.
