Gas Bubble with Vitrectomy

Does anyone knows does a gas bubble causes problems to your eye ? Does laying face too long causes problem ?

On the OCT scan i notice the bubble and wondering is did it causes problem or the OCT scan cannot see through the bubble.

Please use the search feature and archives and read about gas and air bubbles in they eye. There are informative and extensive.   I am assuming you are talking about air inside the eye for retina detachment or macular surgery?
