Vitro retinal surgery is a group of surgeries that take place inside the interior of the eyes where the vitreous and retina are located. The vitreous is a gel-like material, and the retina is the photosensitive membrane that helps in creating images in front of the eyes. Traditional surgical tools and lasers are used to perform these vitreoretinal procedures to address a range of ophthalmic issues like diabetic retinopathy, detached retina, macular degeneration, macular hole, diabetic vitreous hemorrhage, and epiretinal membrane.

What is vitrectomy?Vitrectomy is a specific type of vitreo retinal surgery that removes the vitreous gel-like substance located in the middle of the eye. It is performed under general or local anesthesia, depending upon the patient’s health. During this procedure, an eye surgeon inserts small instruments into the eye to cut the fibers which attach the vitreous gel to the retina, and suction out the vitreous. The holes or tears in the retina or macula are then repaired, the areas where the retina is detached is flattened, and the vitreous fibers or scar tissue attached to the retina is removed. Then, the vitreous cavity is filled with gas, saline solution, or silicone oil, to restore normal eye pressure.

What all does vitrectomy resolve? With this procedure, a number of eye-related problems can be resolved. The most common problem that vitrectomy is used to resolve is diabetic vitreous hemorrhage, a condition in which the retina bleeds into the vitreous. Patients who suffer from vision loss, distortion, or disruption due to vitreous hemorrhage have observed highly improved visual acuity by undergoing vitrectomy. The procedure also reduces the risk of severe bleeding in patients who experience vitreous hemorrhage or those with abnormal blood vessels in the iris.

Whеn іs vіtrесtоmу required? A vitrectomy is required when complications like retinal detachment, elevated intraocular pressure, corneal edema, continued bleeding in the vitreous, or internal eye infection arise. The surgery is used as a last resort in extreme cases that do not clear up with other treatments. This is why it is very important that when you have any such problems in the eye, you consult a professional eye specialist in Andheri West Mumbai to diagnose your condition and check for other treatments, before deciding upon performing vitrectomy. Every patient and every eye is different, thus respond differently to a treatment. So, an eye specialist will let you know if vitrectomy is what you should take up, and the other precautions you will need to take with it.

The FCVB case in Turkey

A 24 years old patient is an optimistic who has undergone three silicone oil filling operations at Kocaeli University Hospitals because of the “right eyeball trauma”. Unfortunately,  he have suffered persistent low intraocular pressure and signs of eyeball atrophy.

Considering the eyeball atrophy and other complications that may occur in the future, it is highly likely that the eyeball will be removed without the eyeball shape being maintained. To avoid the removal of the eyeballs, Professor Dr. Levent Karabaş decided to implement "Foldable Capsular Vitreous Body implantation " for Mr. Kahmauan.

Retinal diseases: A cause of chronic blindness

The blind population in India is estimated to rise to 15 million by 2020. Retinal diseases account for a significant share of the vision loss, burden, compared to other eye-related diseases that can cause blindness.Of the various retinal disorders, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and diabetic macular edema (DME) are two progressive diseases that cause loss of vision. AMD and DME can be effectively managed if patients are diagnosed in a timely manner. Therefore, it is important to understand the underlying symptoms associated with the diseases to identify the disease at an early stage. Understanding Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) and Diabetic Macular Edema (DME)

The retina is that part of the eye where the final vision is formed, the way it is created on a film inside a camera. If the retina is damaged, the vision is automatically affected. AMD affects the macula of the retina causing damage to the centre vision. AMD is one of the important causes of severe visual loss in the elderly population. It constitutes 8.7% of blindness in the world. Diabetic Retinopathy damages blood vessels inside the retina at the back of the eye. It constitutes 4.8% of blindness in the world. Diabetic Retinopathy leads to Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) which is the most common form of DR. It occurs when the damaged blood vessels swell and leak into the macula of the retina causing visibility problem in the normal vision. Awareness of Retinal Diseases Dr. Ajay Dudani, Ophthalmologist and Eye and Vitreoretinal Surgeon, Bombay Hospital & CEO of Mumbai Retina Centre said, "The severity of Diabetic Retinopathy is related to the duration of Diabetes Mellitus (DM). A person suffering from DM for a period of 10 years has 50% risk of getting diagnosed with Diabetic Retinopathy whereas if the duration increases to 20 years the rate ratchets up to 90%. Similarly, poor diabetes control leads to rapid progression of DR." Timely diagnosis

Dr. Raja Narayanan, Secretary of VRSI & Head of Clinical Research, L.V. Prasad Eye Institute, Hyderabad, said, "Retinal diseases like age-related macular degeneration and diabetic macular edema are progressive conditions that can be managed effectively if diagnosed in a timely manner. Therefore, it is vital to seek expert advice as soon as one experiences the symptoms. Timely diagnosis can help slow the disease progression." Patients need to be alert in recognizing early signs and symptoms of retinal diseases. Most often, the symptoms of AMD are confused with old age. Diabetics are advised to visit an ophthalmologist/retinologist every six months, as they are at a higher risk of developing diabetic retinopathy. Early detection of AMD and DME increases the possibility of preventing vision loss. Common signs and symptoms The symptoms of retinal diseases may vary depending on the type of retinal disorder. However, most of the symptoms overlap each other or are common in various diseases. For example: Blurred or fuzzy or distorted vision Impaired color vision Decreased contrast or color sensitivity experiencing dark spots in vision Straight lines that appear wavy or crooked Difficulty seeing at a distance Vision loss Treatment Protocol Today, there are treatments available that can slow or halt disease progression. Some of the treatment options available in India include laser photocoagulation, anti-VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) injections and combination therapy which include laser and anti-VEGF treatment.

Can Eyesight Be Restored After Glaucoma? – Arohi Eye Hospital

The retina is one of the most important parts of our eye that lets us see and visualize the beautiful world that god has made for us. It is a very thin tissue that lines the back of the eye, only about the size of a postage stamp, but one can never imagine life without this tiny element! Although there are many who lose their eyes after an accident or trauma, or those that are born with no eyesight, but for us, who are able to see, we can never imagine life without our eyesight, can we!?

The retina, so small, contains more than 100 distinct cell types that are organized into multiple information processing layers, which work together to absorb light and translate it into electrical signals that stream through the optic nerve to the brain. Now, there is a condition, wherein the retina slowly degenerates. This is when an altered gene within the nexus of cells progressively eliminates the power of sight. This condition has seen to become increasingly popular, which is why researchers have always been on the lookout for innovative ways in which the condition can be prevented or reversed.

Leber congenital amaurosis is one of the most common retinal diseases that is characterized by severe vision loss at birth. A number of other eye-related abnormalities like roving eye movements, deep-set eyes, and sensitivity to bright light also occur with this disease. Lots of clinical trials have been carried out to bring a solution for this particular disease, in the hope of transferring a normal vision of the affected gene into the retinal cells to restore lost vision. Researchers are measuring the efficiency of gene transfer into the retina through an imaging technique known as large-scale mosaic confocal microscopy, which computationally assembles many small high-resolution images in a way that is similar to Google Earth.

Researchers, Wonkyu Ju, Mark Ellisman, and their colleagues, at the University of California, San Diego, engineered adeno-associated virus serotype 2 (AAV2) to deliver a dummy gene into the ganglion cells of a mouse retina. Two months later, they found that the dummy gene had been selectively transferred into retinal ganglion cells at a high rate of efficiency. The researchers also used AAV2 to deliver a gene that coded for a mutant version of a protein, called DRP1, into the retinas of mice. They found that it reserved normal DRP1 protein, and stopped retinal ganglion cells from dying due to glaucoma, a vision-threatening condition that elevates pressure within the eye. Thus, the gene transfer proved successful in rescuing the retinal ganglion cells. Looking at this experiment, researchers are continuing to pursue this line of study with the aim of translating their discoveries into possible ways of helping humans with glaucoma. There is a lot that is happening to help humans restore their eyesight after any kinds of retinal diseases they encounter. However, prevention is always better than cure. Thus, you must always keep your eyes in check to look out for even the slightest changes in your eyes that may result in complicated eye issues. For this, you need to stay in touch with an eye specialist for regular eye consultation in Andheri West Mumbai. Arohi Eye Hospital is the best eye checkup clinic in Oshiwara Mumbai where you can receive not only consultation and chekup, but also effective treatments for various kinds of eye problems.
