Restoring Clear Central and Peripheral Vision

If you are experiencing persistent, disruptive floaters that obstruct your vision, or if your central vision is being distorted by conditions like an Epiretinal Membrane (ERM), vitrectomy may be necessary to restore clarity and optimal sight.

Advanced Retinal Expertise, Minimally Invasive Techniques
Vitrectomy is a microsurgical procedure performed at the back of the eye (the vitreous cavity). Our vitreoretinal specialist utilises the latest small-gauge, minimally invasive techniques to treat a wide range of conditions, ensuring faster recovery and exceptional patient comfort.
Why Choose Our Specialists?

Our focus is on precision, safety, and long-term clarity, ensuring you receive the highest standard of care for growths on the surface of your eye.

Specialist Retinal Solutions

Our specialist customises the procedure to the specific condition affecting your sight

Floaters (Vitreous Opacities)
While many floaters are manageable, those that severely impair vision, reading, or driving can be safely and permanently cleared using vitrectomy. This procedure removes the distracting material from the vitreous cavity, offering a permanent end to the visual nuisance.
Epiretinal Membrane (ERM) Removal
When fine scar tissue forms on the retina's surface (ERM), it can cause central vision distortion and warping. Our specialist performs precise vitrectomy to carefully peel away the ERM, helping to straighten and restore compromised central vision.
Other Complex Conditions
Vitrectomy is also used to treat serious conditions, including retinal detachments, diabetic retinopathy complications, and macular holes.
Minimally Invasive Comfort

Modern vitrectomy has been revolutionised by small-gauge technology, maximizing patient comfort and recovery speed

Small-Gauge Surgery
We use the latest micro-incision techniques that require no sutures (stitches). This dramatically reduces inflammation, leading to a much faster visual recovery and minimal post-operative discomfort.
Go Home the Same Day
The procedure is performed efficiently on an out-patient basis, meaning you can return to the comfort of your home shortly after surgery.
