Overview
Vitreoretinal surgery is an advanced procedure to treat severe eye conditions that affect the retina and vitreous of your eye. At Kasturi Medical Centre in Behala, vitreoretinal surgery is performed by highly skilled retinal surgeons using precise microsurgical techniques. This surgery is essential for conditions like retinal detachment, diabetic retinopathy, macular holes and vitreous haemorrhage. If left untreated, these issues may cause severe vision loss.
