The most advanced technology and state of the art equipment, like the 3D Optical coherence tomography scanner, paired with excellent surgical staff, have made Retina Surgeon UK the market leaders in retina care.
According to Ray Man, a PA at Retina Surgeon UK, “The eye is filled with vitreous gel and as we age, it separates from the macula, consisting of nerve cells, which is necessary with distinctive vision needed for reading and driving. When the gel pulls away, it is stuck on the surface of the eye causing blurred vision. When the adhesion between the shrinking gel and the macula is too tight, then vitreomacular traction occurs, also referred to as VMT. This condition often manifests in people suffering from macular degeneration and diabetic eye disease in older people.”
The highly acclaimed vitreomacular surgeons as Retina Surgeon UK perform a thorough retinal examination to ascertain whether the patient is suffering from VMT. Distorted vision, elevation of the retina and the accumulation of fluid are a few symptoms of VMT. Eye drops are put in the eye to enlarge the pupils. A photographic scan of the back of the eye is done, to determine the severity of the disease.

At Retina Surgeon UK, Mahi Muqit, aworld-renowned retina specialist will consult patients to assess the severity of the symptoms, before deciding on the correct procedure, operation or treatment, in order to restore the patient’s vision and circumvent the loss of sight.
The professional and well-trained staff at Retina Surgeon UK will fully inform patients about the risks of Surgery for Vitreomacular Traction Release. Studies have shown that that the likelihood of developing a cataract increases significantly after the operation, therefore surgeons recommend that cataract surgery is done simultaneously on patients older than 50 years. This will enable a more rapid recovery of vision.
Recovery time after surgery if normally two weeks. Post-operative care entails the use of eye drops, which will assist full recovery. Posturing also speeds up recovery, and although uncomfortable, it is the best possible solution to accelerate the recovery process.
