Hi there,
I'm 32male, asian, from jakarta. I had my mac-on retina re-attachment surgery on 23 may (Left eye) .2 week After the surgery, my vision is 20/50 ( with glasses), with white blindspot near central vision but no waviness. 1 week later, i had sub-clinical re-detachment, which doctor did a laser treatments to double the laser stitches. However i notice incrimental visual deteritration over-time and on 12 july i notice a waviness, did an OCT and diagnose with macular pucker. I already went to many surgeons and all of them said wait and observe. 2 weeks later the macular progresivelly worsen and my central vision is so blurry and distorted i no longer able to read big text. It seems surgery is unavoidable.
My Question is,
1. In my case, when is the right time to do macular pucker surgery after you have retinal reattachment surgery to achive a good visual acuity? i heard if you wait to long your original visual acuity wont come back.
2. is it save to do sub-clinical retina re-atachement surgery at the same time with macular pucker? i heard surgeon will inject steroid into your eyes. My eye preasure is tend to go up very easy. i'm afraid gas or silicon oil complicated things.
Thanks again for reading this! looking foward for your opinion.
