  • Eye Surgeon Mr Andrew Davies joins host Lev Cribb on the Virtually Anything Goes Podcast Expert Series to share his insights, stories, as well as humorously busting some myths about Eye Surgery. Andrew is an Ophthalmic Consultant, who is one of very few surgeons who specialise in Vitreoretinal Surgery, i.e. surgery at the back of the eye.

    Ever wondered how advanced surgical techniques are pushing the boundaries of eye care? Discover the intricate world of vitreoretinal surgery with our esteemed guest, Mr. Andrew Davies, a leading consultant ophthalmologist and vitreoretinal surgeon. With extensive training from Moorfields Eye Hospital and Manchester Royal Eye Hospital, Andrew brings a wealth of experience and knowledge, offering a detailed look into the anatomy of the eye and the complexities of surgeries involving the vitreous and retina.

    Join us as we break down the evolution of eye surgery, likening the human eye to a traditional camera to simplify the understanding of these complex procedures. Andrew shares his personal journey into the highly specialized field of vitreoretinal surgery, explaining why it attracts only a select few due to its unpredictable and often emergency nature. We discuss the remarkable advancements in surgical techniques and technologies over the past 100 years (and beyond), highlighting how modern innovations have significantly increased the safety and precision of eye surgeries.

    This episode also light-heartedly addresses common myths and fears associated with eye surgery, providing clarity and reassurance to potential patients. Andrew recounts real-life cases, including a dramatic incident involving a jeweller, to illustrate the range and severity of conditions treated with vitreoretinal surgery. Furthermore, we explore the collaborative efforts of surgical teams, the future of robotic surgery in ophthalmology, and practical eye health tips to help you maintain optimal vision. Don’t miss our engaging "virtually anything goes" question segment to wrap up this enlightening conversation.
