What's the best surgery option for a grade 3 varicocele and how is open surgery done do they use any magnification during the procedure

For grade 3 varicocele, microsurgical varicocelectomy is generally considered the best surgical option, offering the highest success rate and lowest risk of complications. Open surgery, specifically microsurgical subinguinal varicocelectomy, involves making a small incision in the groin area, and the surgeon uses a microscope or loupes (magnifying glasses) to identify and ligate (tie off) the enlarged veins, preserving the testicular artery and lymphatic vessels.
