Scleral Buckling
It involves a procedure by which the hole or retinal break is localized, treated with cryopexy and the subretinal fluid drained. A scleral buckle (implant or explant) is subsequently placed over the hole. It is very important that the patient undergoes surgery at the earliest for better visual activity.
Parsplana Vitrectomy
Vitreous is a jelly like substance filling the cavity within the eye. It could be site of collection of blood and formation of membranes pulling the retina from its bed leading to retinal detachment and also bleeding in to the vitreous cavity causing vitreous hemorrhage. Vitrectomy therefore helps to remove the blood, infected material and membranes from the vitreous cavity. Retinal Surgeries are complex surgeries, which have good prognosis if the patient undergoes surgery early. Delay in presentation leads to formation of membranes called Proliferative Vitreo Retinopathy (PVR), which causes traction bands pulling the retina off.These sort of cases require sophisticated methods like Vitrectomy + Membrane Peeling + an addition of a tamponading agent like Silicon oil or intraocular gas, which keeps the retina attached for a sufficient period of time to enable the retina to get attached permanently. The silicon oil can be subsequently removed at a later date.
