What is Vitrectomy?
Vitrectomy is the surgical procedure performed to remove the vitreous entirely or partially.
The vitreous is a gel-like substance that fills the middle portion of the eye.
Removing the vitreous gives better access to your retina and decreases the tension on your retina. The surgery is used to treat various problems with the retina and vitreous.
The surgery may involve any or all of the following-
Removal of blood or other substances that is preventing light from reaching the retina.
Removal of scar tissue in the vitreous humor.
Repairing retinal tears or holes.
Reattaching a detached retina to the eye wall.
Removal of foreign objects that may get stuck in the eye due to an injury.

How is #vitrectomy done?

During a vitrectomy, your surgeon (an eye doctor called an ophthalmologist) uses small instruments to cut the vitreous and suction it out. Then your eye doctor does any other needed repairs, like repairing a hole in your retina. He or she may place air or other gas into your eye to help the retina stay in its proper position.

Which eye conditions might require a #vitrectomy?

You might require a vitrectomy if you have any of the following eye problems:
Severe eye injury
Retinal tears, retinal holes, or detached tissues.
Diabetic retinopathy
Retinal detachment
Vitreous hemorrhage
Penetration of an intraocular foreign object
A hole in the macula
A wrinkle in the retina

Most of these eye conditions, if not treated on time, are capable of causing #loss and blindness down the line.

Are there any risks and complications of vitrectomy?

Vitrectomy is a very safe and effective surgery with a success rate as high as 90%. But in some cases, the surgery may involve complications and side effects.

Commonly reported side effects to include:
infection
redness, swelling, and inflammation
