Solution

The correct option is B Vitrectomy
A patient suffering from long-term diabetes may lose eyesight. The cause for this is diabetes retinopathy. In this disorder, blood capillaries in the retina may rapture causing blood entering the vitreous humour and making it opaque. This leads to blindness. This disorder can be cured by laser treatment or a surgery called vitrectomy.
