Retinal Surgery to Preserve Your Sight

If you’ve experienced a retinal tear or detached retina, you may need to undergo retinal surgery to recover some, or all, of your lost vision. Retinal tears and detachments are considered ocular emergencies.

If you’ve been told you require retinal surgery, please book an urgent appointment with our wonderful eye care team today.

Surgery for Retinal Tears

Photocoagulation is a type of laser surgery that makes small burns around the retinal tear to create scarring that seals the retina to the underlying tissue. Photocoagulation is used to prevent a retinal detachment.

Cryopexy is a procedure that freezes the area around the retinal tear to help secure the retina in place. This procedure helps to prevent a possible retinal detachment.

Surgery for Retinal Detachments

Scleral buckle surgery is performed by your ophthalmologist, who places a band, called a scleral buckle, around the eye. This buckle helps to bring the wall of the eye towards the detached retina, to keep the retina viable.

During a pneumatic retinopexy, your ophthalmologist injects a gas bubble into the vitreous space of your eye. This gas then helps push the retina back into place. You may be required to lie face down for about a week after the procedure to help the retina take hold.

During a vitrectomy, your surgeon removes the vitreous gel that might be pulling on your retina, to eliminate the traction. Your surgeon may use oil or a gas bubble to hold the retina in place.
