Device typeVitrectomy system: An assembly of ophthalmic devices intended to deliver energy (e.g., ultrasonic, piezoelectric, pneumatic) through a dedicated hand-held instrument, which converts the energy into an oscillating-cutting action to remove (nibble away) vitreous humour (the jelly-like substance that fills the centre of the eye) during ophthalmic surgery. This system will typically consist of a generator to provide the energy, an infusion and suction system to supply replacement fluid and remove debris, a cutting handpiece and cables, and a foot control. This assembly is typically used to treat diabetic vitreous haemorrhage, retinal detachment, epiretinal membrane, and macular hole.
