🏥 Step-by-Step Retina Surgery Procedure

1. Initial Consultation & Diagnosis

  • Thorough eye examination and review of medical history

  • Use of advanced diagnostic tools:

    • Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

    • Fundus Photography

    • Fluorescein Angiography

    • B-scan Ultrasonography (if needed)

2. Pre-Surgical Counseling

  • Discussion of the diagnosis and treatment plan

  • Explanation of the surgery, risks, expected outcomes, and recovery time

  • Pre-operative instructions and medical clearance

3. Surgical Techniques Used

Dr. Labonnyo performs a range of retina surgeries using advanced techniques, including:

  • Pars Plana Vitrectomy (PPV): Removal of vitreous gel to access and repair retinal issues

  • Scleral Buckling: A flexible band is placed around the eye to support reattachment of the retina

  • Laser Photocoagulation: Laser is used to seal retinal tears or treat leaky blood vessels

  • Pneumatic Retinopexy: A gas bubble is injected to help reattach the retina

Anesthesia: Local or general anesthesia depending on patient condition and procedure type
Duration: Typically 1–2 hours
Setting: Performed in a sterile, modern operating theater


🛌 Post-Operative Care & Recovery

  • Post-surgical medications and eye drops

  • Follow-up visits for monitoring healing and vision improvement

  • Instructions on eye positioning (especially in gas-filled procedures)

  • Activity restrictions to aid healing

Full recovery may take several weeks. Vision improvement varies by case but early intervention often leads to better outcomes.
