Raghav Chadha, the husband of Parineeti Chopra, recently made news when it emerged that the politician received major eye surgery in London. According to details revealed at a recent news briefing by Aam Aadmi Party minister Saurabh Bharadwaj, Chadha had a serious enough issue that blindness was a possibility.
Raghav had a vitrectomy, per a PTI report, to save his retina from detaching from his eye. Since many readers may not be familiar with this word, we felt it would be helpful to break it down for you and clarify what this procedure entails.
What is a vitrectomy?
An eye operation called a vitrectomy is performed to remove the vitreous fluid from the eyeball. The clear, colourless fluid that fills the space in the eye between the retina and lens is called vitreous fluid. Until one’s body starts making vitreous again, surgery helps to remove this liquid and replace it with a transparent fluid or a gas bubble.
When is a vitrectomy necessary?
A vitrectomy may be necessary for a number of reasons. One is when you have a disease of the eyes that results in clouding of the vitreous, which is caused by bleeding in the eyes. And the second is when your retina is harmed. It is said that this illness requires a treatment gadget or medication delivery system and is difficult to diagnose.
How long does recuperation take?
One will need to miss two to four weeks of work following a vitrectomy. Both while you are sleeping and when you are awake, your head has to be in the proper alignment. For many days, the patient’s eye may feel puffed up or mildly inflamed, and there may be some redness and vision that is blurry.
About Raghav Chadha’s operation, what was said by Delhi minister Saurabh Bharadwaj?
Senior party leader and Rajya Sabha member Raghav Chadha’s absence during the vital election time is because to a major eye issue, according to a recent revelation by Delhi Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj.
“It’s a UK eye surgery, Raghav apni ek silsile mein abhi hai,” he remarked. We can only hope that this will not happen. It is blindness that is the case. However, it is not as easy as it seems when you consider that waapis aayenge and humare campaign ke another name honge.(Raghav is presently undergoing eye surgery in the UK.
According to reports, his health was fairly critical and there was a chance he may go blind. I think he’ll return and join our campaign as soon as his treatment is over.”
Parineeti Chopra is rumoured to be leaving shortly for the UK to be with her partner and support his quick recovery.
