What is vitrectomy, a surgery Parineeti Chopra’s husband Raghav Chadha underwent? Details inside
Parineeti Chopra's husband Raghav Chadha has reportedly undergone a major eye surgery in the UK. In this article we bring to you a detailed information about his eye surgery.
Parineeti Chopra’s husband Raghav Chadha recently made it to the headlines after it was revealed that the politician underwent critical eye surgery in London. As per the information given by Aam Aadmi Party minister Saurabh Bharadwaj in a recent press conference, Chadha's complication was so major that blindness was possible too.
According to a report in PTI, Raghav underwent a vitrectomy surgery to prevent retinal detachment in his eye. We know that this might be a new term for many readers hence we thought of simplifying it for you and explaining what this surgery is all about.
What is a vitrectomy?
A vitrectomy is an eye surgery that is done to remove the vitreous fluid from one’s eyeball. The vitreous fluid is a transparent, colorless, gel-like substance that fills up in between the lens and retina within the eye. The surgery helps in removing this liquid and replacing it with a clear fluid or a gas bubble until one’s body begins producing the vitreous again.
When do you need a vitrectomy?
There are several reasons that one needs to undergo a vitrectomy. One is when you have an eye condition that causes your vitreous to become cloudy which is a result of bleeding in your eye. And, the second is when there is damage to your retina. It is said that this condition is not easy to diagnose and it needs a drug delivery or therapeutic device.
What is the recovery time?
After vitrectomy, one will need to take off from work for about two to four weeks. Your head needs to be kept in the correct position when you are awake and while sleeping. The patient’s eye might feel puffy or slightly irritated, there might be some redness and imperfect vision for a few days.
What did Delhi minister Saurabh Bharadwaj say about Raghav Chadha’s surgery?
He said, "Raghav apni ek eye surgery ke silsile mein abhi UK mein hai. Aur bataya jata hai kaafi gambhir unki samasya thi. Blindness bhi ho sakti thi. Aur mujhe lagta hai jaise hi ilaaz unka ho jaayega, wo waapis aayenge aur humare campaign ke ander shaamil honge.(Raghav is currently in the UK for an eye surgery. It has been reported that his condition was quite serious, and blindness was also possible. I believe that as soon as his treatment is done, he will return and be part of our campaign.)"
It is reported that Parineeti Chopra is soon going to travel to the UK to be with her husband and help in his speedy recovery.
