Vitrectomy Surgery for Diabetic Retinopathy

With a vitrectomy, small surgical instruments are used to enter the inside of the eye. Blood and scar tissue are removed, and a laser may be used to prevent further bleeding and abnormal blood vessel growth. To help the retina heal, a gas bubble or silicon oil may be placed in the vitreous space. Learn more at www.geteyesmart....

Depends on where you get this done or who does it. Here in the UK, I will be getting it done privately. I have been assured of a 3 to 4 month recovery.
