few hours. This operation will be performed at our eye centre under local anaesthesia. In the case of vitrectomy, three small incisions are made in the white of your eye. Via these incisions, the ophthalmologist can treat your retina or vitreous problem.<\/p><p>If you are aged 50 or older, your ocular lens will be removed and replaced with an artificial one. We do this out of precaution, since your age increases your chance of cataracts once you have had a vitrectomy. This is discussed with you in advance.<\/p><p>For a vitrectomy, you will be admitted to our eye centre and you can go back home later the same day. Around an hour before the start of the operation, you will be administered a pill under the eyelid in order to dilate your pupil. In younger patients in particular, this may still have an effect on your pupil a few days after the operation.<\/p><p>You will notice little or nothing during the operation. A vitrectomy is performed using a microscope. Looking into the bright light of the microscope can sometimes feel unpleasant. Your retina condition is then treated via the small incisions in the eye. At the end of the operation, your eye is filled up again with a special fluid and antibiotics are administered to protect you from a potential infection. Lastly, an eye shield will be placed over your eye(s), which you will need to keep on until the morning after the operation.<\/p><p>After a vitrectomy, your vision will gradually improve. This recovery may take a few weeks or months, and so you will have to be patient. You may have to use eye drops during the first weeks following the operation, in consultation with the doctor or nurse.\u00a0 After one or more weeks following the operation, you can resume your daily activities, but until then you will not be allowed to work.<\/p><\/div>        <\/div>\n       \n    \n    \n    \n    <!-- put your not empty html here -->\n\n    \n    \n            \n  \n    \n    \n          \n        \n      <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<div class=\"uc_image_carousel_container_holder ue-item\">\n  \n    <div class=\"uc_image_carousel_content content-padding ue-content-holder\">\n    \n            <div style=\"width:100%;\">\n                                <div class=\"ue-title\"><\/div>\n                            <div class=\"ue-text\" ><p>The cost of the operation can vary, depending on the medication used and whether or not your lens had to be replaced during the operation.
