Retinal Disorders and Treatment

 

In some cases, a cataract cannot be removed completely and some of the lens material remains in the eye. If the amount of retained lens material is small, it may dissolve spontaneously. If there is a large amount of lens material, elevated pressure, or severe inflammation, a second procedure, called a vitrectomy, can remove the lens material and help restore vision. Vitrectomy surgery for retained lens material and other complications of cataract surgery is one of the most commonly performed procedures by the physicians of the Retina Group of Florida.
