Frequently Asked Questions
Is retinal surgery urgent?
Retinal detachment requires immediate attention to prevent permanent vision loss. Other conditions like macular holes are less urgent but timely treatment is crucial.
What is 'face-down' recovery?
If a gas bubble is used to hold the retina in place, you may need to keep your head in a specific position for several days.
Is vitrectomy painful?
The surgery is performed under local or general anesthesia so you feel no pain. Post-op discomfort is usually mild.
Will my vision return completely?
Visual recovery depends on the severity and duration of the condition before surgery. Your surgeon will discuss realistic expectations.
