Surgical retina

 

Vitreoretinal surgery is the most advanced form of ophthalmic surgery. Developments in technology now make it possible to operate on diseases of the retina and vitreous quickly, efficiently and safely.

Over 90% of these procedures can be performed under local anesthesia, and more rarely, under general anesthesia.

How is retinal surgery performed?

Make an appointment

Preoperative examination :

This involves a thorough examination of your vision to ensure that you have no contraindications to the operation. The ophthalmologist will explain how the operation will be carried out and the post-operative recommendations.

Operation

Under locoregional anesthesia and continuous sedation, with an average operating time of 30 to 45 minutes, the ophthalmic surgeon will perform the procedure.

Post-operative follow-up :

Regular follow-up with the ophthalmologist (D3 and M12).

Visual recovery :

Visual recovery is fairly rapid for the first month, followed by a slower phase up to a year after the operation.

“I highly recommend it. Waiting time almost non-existent, pleasant and clean premises. Pleasant and professional staff. Appointment booking on Doctolib fairly quick.”
