Surgery Overview
Pneumatic retinopexy is a surgery to repair certain types of retinal 
detachments. It is usually an outpatient procedure, which means you don't need 
to stay in the hospital.

Before surgery, your eye is numbed with local anesthesia. Then the eye doctor 
(ophthalmologist) injects a gas bubble into the middle of the eye. Your head is 
positioned so that the bubble floats to the detached area and presses against 
the detachment. The eye doctor then seals the tear in the retina using a 
freezing probe or laser beam.

The bubble helps to flatten the retina until a seal forms between the retina 
and the wall of the eye. This takes about 1 to 3 weeks. The eye slowly absorbs 
the gas bubble.
