Summary

The aim of this prospective study is to investigate the feasibility of performing minimally invasive vitrectomy under sub-tenon anesthesia in terms of intraoperative patients' tolerance and the surgeon's confidence. In particular, the tolerance and pain sensation during the operation as well as the possible perception of light and colour sensations are to be recorded with the help of questionnaires. In addition, the surgeon's impressions regarding eye motility, chemosis and general feasibility will be evaluated.
