Vitreoretinal surgery refers to operations performed on the vitreous or retina. Many diseases and age-related changes that impact the retina and vitreous can be treated with surgery. Most vitreoretinal surgeries are performed primarily under local anesthetic. During a vitreoretinal operation, the surgeon makes tiny incisions in the sclera (the white part of the eye). Using a microscope to look inside the eye and microsurgical instruments, the surgeon removes the vitreous and repairs the retina through these tiny incisions.
