ASG Treatment Options

Medications and Retina Examination

In the early stages of retinal problems, medications and detailed retina examination can help control swelling, bleeding, and infections before surgery becomes necessary.

Advanced retina imaging, retinal scans, and regular checkups help monitor disease progression and support accurate retina disease treatment planning.

Minimally Invasive Vitrectomy Surgery

Modern minimally invasive vitrectomy surgery uses advanced micro-incision technology to safely remove vitreous gel and repair retinal damage.

This advanced retina eye surgery provides faster recovery, less discomfort, minimal scarring, and improved visual recovery compared to traditional retinal surgery techniques.

 Vitrectomy with Retinal Repair

In severe retinal conditions like retinal detachment, surgeons may combine vitrectomy surgery with laser treatment, retinal repair, or membrane peeling procedures.

This advanced retina surgery helps restore retinal integrity, improve retinal function, and prevent permanent vision loss.
