Fovea Scar Damage

Fovea Scar Damage

My friend was struck in the eye and had to receive orbital bone surgery.  Now the retina specialist has examined his eye and has stated that he has a vertical scar over his fovea.  The specialist stated that it was irrepairable.  I am asking can this type of damage to the fovea be repaired surgically.  Should he get a second opinion?

If there truly is a scar in the fovea, there is no way to repair it.  Sorry.
