Hello all, I received my laser surgery over a month ago for my left eye retina tear and right eye for lattice degeneration.
I had a follow up with my retina specialist doctor a few days ago and he says everything looks fine. 2 days later, I noticed my right eye (the one with lattice degeneration) had a random flash of light. But the flash of light seems a little different than what I experienced with my left eye which had a retina tear.
I am scared that my right eye has a retina tear because I don't want to go through the whole surgery again. But if I do have a tear, it doesn't make sense to me... my doctor already lasered my right eye for lattice degeneration and he said the chances of tearing is small. Plus I just saw him a few days ago and he said it looks good. How can a tear develop in merely 2 days? If it looks like it's about to tear shouldn't he noticed it? I was diagnosed with lattice degeneration on my R eye in June and got surgery in September. I mean during those 3 months it didn't tear... it just doesn't make sense if it tore now.
Anyone know what this is, or experienced this?
My next appointment is in 5 weeks.
