TECHNIQUES

In order to achieve optimum results, your surgeon may use several special techniques, including:

Microsurgical Instruments

There are several instruments used to remove scar tissue and foreign bodies such as forceps, scissors, and picks. There are hundreds of vitrectomy instruments available to assist surgeons. Most vitreoretinal tools are smaller than 1mm in diameter, making them some of the most precise and finely crafted instruments available today.

Scleral Buckling

This is a technique used on its own to repair a retinal detachment or combined with a vitrectomy procedure to offer additional support in reattaching the retina. Learn more about the scleral buckle procedure on the Retinal Detachment page.

Lensectomy

A lensectomy is often performed when a cloudy natural lens (cataract) prevents the surgeon from clearly viewing the ocular structures behind it. It involves surgically removing the eye’s crystalline lens during the eye vitrectomy procedure. In some instances, a lensectomy may also be necessary to remove scar tissue during more complex retinal detachment procedures. The lens can be replaced with a clear lens implant either during the same surgical procedure or at a later date.
