Is vitrectomy surgery done by the machine?

Do not think that. The vitrectome is responsible for maintaining pressure, suction, lighting and laser conditions but the instruments that are inserted into the eye are held by the vitreoretinal surgeon. Only the surgeon's skill, movements, decisions and experience determine the outcome of the operation. This is why choosing the right surgeon, who specialises in retina operations, is fundamental for guaranteeing the best possible outcome.
