Specializes in Retinal Surgery

Post op vitrectomy: Gas reabsorption depends on type of gas, concentration, and other factors. Visual recovery generally depends upon what the pre-op vision was. The rate of recovery is dependent upon what the surgery was done to repair. Total recovery of vision can occur after vitrectomy. Often times, however, this is not possible due to damage done by the retina being off, cataract, or other factors.
