Changing Vision

I am 51 years old.  I am far sighted in left eye and near sighed in right.  I had laser vision correction about 5 years ago, done 2 times, and my vision has "reverted" somewhat towards my old vision.  Now my problem is that my vision changes so much that I cannot see properly and is blurry.  I cannot seem to get a pair of glasses that keep anything from being blurry.  I work at computer, got glasses, but my my vision changes rapidly during the day.  I also have dry eyes and use drops frequently.  Help, I just want to see and read clearly.

While you are at an increased risk of RD the risk is still very low. Likely less than 3-5%    The ROP patients I've cared far have done nicely.  Have a retina Eye MD look at your eye before and after and regularly after the surgery and you'll likely do fine.

I am a 53 year old woman. I have been told that I have ROP.  I also have PVD. I now have posterior Subcapsular cataracts. My specialist has said that my retina is very thin and if I havecsurgery I have a higher than average chance of losing my sight. Obviously I will eventually need surgery, I just wonder how long I have until I have no choice but to take the chance.

You should get a second opinion from a cornea ophthalmology Eye MD specialist.
