Can I Golf?

I am a high Moype . i had an RD a year ago.. a buckle was put in.

I would like to know if I can Golf, as I have read in some websites that doctors have advised against playing Golf, as the centrifugal forces associated with a Golf swing can cause detachments of the retina.

Dear kinny_karanam,

I would recommend that you speak with your retinal specialist as he/she is familiar with your eyes.
