What is Macular Hole Repair

Macular hole repair is a surgical procedure that repairs a hole that forms in the macula, the central part of the retina of the eye.The macula is responsible for allowing us to see objects in detail, so the hole can cause central vision loss and blurriness.

The surgery involves cutting and removing the vitreous humor, the gel-like substance that fills the back of the eye, and then using a special gas to fill the hole in the macula.The gas helps to keep the hole closed while the eye heals and tissue grows around it.

The surgery is usually done as an outpatient procedure and is considered relatively safe.Recovery times vary, but most people will see some improvement in their vision within weeks of the surgery.

The success rate for macular hole repair is very high, with the majority of people experiencing a significant improvement in their vision.

Intravitreal Injections: Intravitreal injections are a type of injection that can be used to deliver medication to the macular hole to help flatten the hole and improve vision.

Absolutely love how understanding Dr. Kumud Raut is. The only place where I have not been told about only the process of getting a surgery, but rather they insist on educating about how the eye functions and the importance of having a healthy eye before any surgery.
