Retina Treatment in Ghaziabad

In the primary stages of different retinal diseases usually, no symptoms are seen alone.  Later on, vision loss begins to happen which may get worse if not operated on timely and properly. In case of retinal disease, getting quick treatment will enhance the possibilities of retrieving or maintaining one’s vision, and limit additional loss. 

The treatment for retina depends on the type of disease that you are suffering from. Treatments of some of the common retinal diseases such as diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment in Ghaziabad are discussed below:

Eye injections

These medications, called vascular endothelial protein (VEGF) inhibitors, may help stop the growth of the latest blood vessels by blocking the consequences of growth signals the body sends to get new blood vessels. Your doctor may recommend these medications, also called anti-VEGF therapy, as a stand-alone treatment or together with pan-retinal photocoagulation.

Retinal Laser (Photocoagulation)

The doctor usually uses this procedure before the stage of retinal detachment is reached i.e. only a tear or a hole. This process is called “photocococogulation”, where the doctor directs the laser into the eye through a dilated pupil, the laser causes burns around the retina, which scar and seal off the tear so that detachments do not occur. And the damage is contained.

Scleral buckling

For more severe detachments, you’ll need to have eye surgery in a hospital. Your doctor may recommend scleral buckling. This involves placing a band around the outside of your eye to push the wall of your eye into your retina, getting it back to place for correct healing. Scleral buckling may be done in combination with a vitrectomy. Cryopexy or retinopexy is performed during the scleral buckle procedure.

Vitrectomy

Another option is vitrectomy, which is used for larger tears. This procedure involves anesthesia and is often performed as an outpatient procedure, but may require an overnight stay in the hospital. Your doctor will use small tools to get rid of abnormal vascular or connective tissue and vitreous, a gel-like fluid from your retina. Then they’ll put your retina back to its proper place, commonly with a gas bubble.

Precautions post-retina surgery in Ghaziabad

  • It is requested for you to go directly home after your Retina treatment.
  • You must not rub your eyes for the first day after your surgery.
  • You should avoid any eye makeup or creams, for one day post-surgery.
  • Avoid swimming, hot tubs, and gardening for one week.
  • Avoid getting water directly into your eye(s). You may shower the day post-surgery.
  • You may go back to your work and exercise routine post-surgery.
  • At your first postoperative visit, your doctor will tell you when you may resume driving. Most patients can see well enough to drive the day after their procedure, with the doctor’s approval.
  • You may experience increased sensitivity to light for the first few hours post your Retina Surgery. Sunglasses should be worn when your eye is light-sensitive.

People must maintain a precise head position for several days after surgery. This is important to keep the bubble in place long enough for the detached retina to be repaired. The bubble eventually deflates on its own. People should expect to recover for three weeks after surgery. They are unable to travel by air during the recuperation time because doing so may cause the bubble to enlarge.
