What Is Vitrectomy Surgery?

It is a high-level modern microscopic ophthalmic surgery developed in the early 1970s. Its emergence is considered to be a major revolution in the history of ophthalmic treatment, breaking many of the previously inaccessible surgical exclusion zones and bringing light to countless patients with eye diseases. In the ophthalmic treatment centers of developed countries, vitreous surgery is second only to cataract extraction and IOL implantation, becoming the second major ophthalmic surgery.

Note:

The indications for vitrectomy are expanding,

As a high-precision surgery in ophthalmology, the advantages of vitrectomy are obvious. Specifically, the glass cut surgery has the following advantages:

1. Vitrectomy is performed under local anesthesia, which has less trauma, high safety, and a wide range of surgical indications;

2. With the progress of society and the aging process, age-related macular degeneration continues to increase, at the same time more and more patients with myopia and diabetes, vitreoretinal diseases continue to increase. Bostomy surgery can greatly improve the symptoms of such patients and avoid more blindness or eye atrophy caused by the disease;

3. By removing the turbid or organic vitreous body, pus and blood, it can remove bacteria and toxins and restore the refractive interstitial transparency in the vitreous cavity;

4. Accurately remove foreign objects under direct vision, avoid blindness, and minimize damage to surrounding tissues;

5. It can improve the rate of foreign body removal in the vitreous cavity, and multiple or multiple foreign bodies can be taken out at the same time, especially non-magnetic foreign bodies, foreign bodies in the package, foreign bodies in the retina, etc .;

6. Can directly and accurately obtain vitreous lesion specimens, improve the positive rate of pathogenic examination;

7. Traumatic cataract, retinal detachment, retinal hiatus, silicone oil filling and other operations can be performed at the same time, which reduces the number of operations, prevents multiple operations from damaging the intraocular structure of the affected eye, reduces the cost of hospitalization, and maximizes the recovery of the affected eye. Features.

Because vitrectomy is a high-level modern micro-ophthalmic surgery, the operation is difficult, the operation time is long, the equipment is expensive, the technical content is high, and the requirements for the surgeon are also high. It has gradually become a hospital's technical level and comprehensive strength .
