How Vitrectomy is performed
The surgery mostly uses a minimally invasive small incision system, and a specialist evaluation selects the appropriate instrument specifications. Usually, under the guidance of a microscope and intraocular light source, the turbid or tractional vitreous body is removed, and membrane peeling, internal limiting membrane treatment, and intraocular laser are performed if necessary, and temporary filling with gas or silicone oil is used to maintain stability. Postoperative monitoring of intraocular pressure, corneal transparency, and retinal reattachment is performed, with the goal of clearing turbidity, relieving traction, and creating conditions for subsequent treatment. The above is general health information, not medical advice; the specific plan is subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocol.
