Vitreo-Retinal Surgery in Sola & Science City, Ahmedabad

Advanced Vitreo-Retinal Surgical Solutions for Critical Vision Restoration

Complex retinal conditions—such as full-thickness retinal detachments, persistent vitreous hemorrhages, and tractional macular tears—require specialized microsurgical intervention. Our Retina Surgery division offers sutureless, micro-incision vitrectomy surgery (MIVS) designed to reattach damaged tissue, release vitreous traction, and restore structural stability to the back of the eye.

Led by Dr. Parul Tripathi, MS (Ophthalmology), a fellowship-trained vitreo-retina surgeon with more than 15 years of surgical expertise, our clinic utilizes state-of-the-art microsurgical platforms, wide-angle viewing systems, and intraocular tamponades (gas or silicone oil). Every surgical roadmap is customized to ensure rapid healing, minimal tissue trauma, and optimal functional visual recovery.

Our Retina Surgery Services

01

Retinal Detachment Repair

A retinal detachment is a sight-threatening medical emergency where the neurosensory retina separates from the underlying retinal pigment epithelium. Surgical management involves identifying all causative retinal breaks, draining subretinal fluid, applying endolaser photocoagulation or cryopexy, and placing a temporary gas or silicone oil bubble to press the retina back into its anatomical position. Early surgical repair is vital to prevent irreversible central vision loss.

02

Pars Plana Vitrectomy (PPV / MIVS)

Pars Plana Vitrectomy involves the microsurgical removal of the vitreous gel from inside the eye using small-gauge, sutureless instrumentation (23G/25G/27G). This procedure allows direct access to the retina to relieve vitreous traction, remove non-clearing floaters or blood, manage dropped lens fragments from cataract complications, and treat endophthalmitis, ensuring accelerated postoperative healing and reduced discomfort.

03

Macular Hole & Epiretinal Membrane (ERM) Peeling

The macula provides detailed, high-resolution central vision. When microscopic scar tissue forms on the macula (epiretinal membrane/macular pucker) or traction creates a full-thickness macular hole, vision becomes distorted and blurry. Using specialized microsurgical staining dyes, Dr. Tripathi performs delicate Internal Limiting Membrane (ILM) peeling alongside gas endotamponade to facilitate complete macular hole closure and smooth out retinal distortions.

04

Vitreous Hemorrhage & Advanced Diabetic Eye Surgery

Non-clearing vitreous hemorrhage resulting from proliferative diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusions, or ocular trauma obstructs the passage of light to the retina. Surgical vitrectomy clears stagnant blood, removes fibrovascular traction bands that threaten to pull the retina off, and applies endolaser therapy directly to bleeding vessels to restore clear visual pathways and preserve remaining vision.

Surgical Excellence

Precision microsurgery designed for high patient safety and faster visual rehabilitation

Vitreo-retinal procedures demand extreme precision, sterile operating environments, and dedicated postoperative follow-up to monitor reattachment and guide visual rehabilitation.

Sutureless MIVS Technology

Micro-incision vitrectomy surgery (MIVS) utilizes ultra-fine instruments that require no external stitches, significantly reducing post-op foreign body sensation.

High-Definition Imaging

State-of-the-art operating microscopes and wide-angle retinal viewing systems allow clear visualization across the entire peripheral retina.

Structured Post-Op Care

Comprehensive guidance on posturing (face-down positioning for gas bubbles), pressure monitoring, and tailored rehabilitation protocols.

FAQs

Retina Surgery & Vitrectomy FAQs

Classic warning signs include a sudden shower of new floaters, bright flashes of light (photopsia), and a dark shadow or curtain progressing across your field of vision. This is a medical emergency requiring immediate attention.

Pars Plana Vitrectomy is a microsurgical procedure in which the surgeon removes the vitreous gel from inside the eye. It is performed to repair retinal detachments, clear vitreous hemorrhages, and peel macular scar tissue.

When an intraocular gas bubble is placed to seal a macular hole or reattach the retina, the gas rises upward. Face-down positioning ensures that the buoyant gas bubble exerts constant pressure against the back of the eye to facilitate healing.

If a gas bubble was injected during surgery, air travel and traveling to high altitudes are strictly prohibited until the gas completely dissolves, as pressure changes can cause severe, painful intraocular pressure spikes.

Initial physical healing occurs over 2 to 4 weeks, while visual recovery is a gradual process that can continue to improve over several months depending on the preoperative state of the macula.

The surgery is performed under local or general anesthesia with sedation, ensuring you do not feel pain during the procedure. Postoperative discomfort is typically mild and managed with prescribed eye drops and pain relievers.
