Scar tissue damage

Scar tissue damage

Years ago when I was pregnant with my son I went blind. It was also due to me being a very bad diabetic. I had several eye laser surgeries they really helped clear my vision. I went to the eye doctor and the vision on my sides is horrible due to the scar tissue left from the laser surgery. Is there anything that can be done to get rid of the scar tissue? Thanks for helping.

Short answer is no, the scar tissue is what kept you from going blind. Keep your diabetes under meticulour control (A1c less than 6.0), keep blood pressure, cholesterol and your weight under good control and don't smoke.

Diabetes is the leading cause of new blindness in most developed countries
