Quironsalud University Hospital - Best Ophthalmology Treatment

Pars plana vitrectomy commonly known as vitrectomy surgery is among the most common procedures used for treating vitreo-retinal diseases such as:

Retinal detachment
Vitreous hemorrhage
Proliferative diabetic retinopathy
Epiretinal membrane
Macular hole.

Vitrectomy is a minimally invasive eye surgery where the eye surgeon makes multiple microscopic incisions including periotomy (the opening of the conjunctiva) and sclerotomy (sclera surgery in retinal detachment) to remove most of the vitreous.

Quironsalud University Hospital located in Madrid, Spain focuses on providing first-class ophthalmology services to all of its patients, both local and international.

Advantages of Vitrectomy Ophthalmology

Highly effective in retinal detachment (traction on the original tears is decreased and additional tears are less likely (perhaps not a giant retinal tear))
Rapid Healing due to minimal surgical trauma.
Vitrectomy is a very gentle operation
No change in refraction (For comparison - with a scleral buckle surgery, the eye becomes elongated causing induced myopia and/or significant astigmatism).
Short surgery - usually requiring under 30' to perform.
