Sight is made at the back of the eye.
The retina turns light into vision. When it tears, detaches or bleeds, it needs a surgeon who works at a fraction of a millimetre.
Retina and vitreous surgery
This is Dr. Al-Janabi's subspecialty. Retinal disease often starts with small signs, and early assessment is what protects sight.
Retinal detachment surgery
A retinal detachment happens when the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye lifts away from the wall beneath it.
Vitrectomy and macular surgery
Vitrectomy removes the clear gel that fills the eye so the surgeon can work directly on the retina.
Diabetic retinopathy treatment
Diabetes can damage the small blood vessels of the retina, often without symptoms until the damage is advanced.
Eye injections (anti-VEGF)
Injections into the eye deliver medicine directly to the retina.
