Vitrectomy
- allows the removal of vitreous and any associated haemorrhage, in addition to the relief of retinal traction.
- a vitrectomy often result in the involution of new vessels because the removal of the vitreous also eliminates the platform on which the new vessels grow.
- indicated for cases with established traction detachment and those with persistent vitreous haemorrhage.
