retina scar

My cornea and retina are both scared on my right eye. With the scars I can barely see out my right eye. I know I can get a cornea replacement but is there a surgery that can help my retina scar?

Thank you very much. I was in a car accident and a fence post hit the right side of my face so I knew it scared my cornea but just found out about my retina being scared. Not sure how that part happened. My right eye was always sowen shut.

Only a real look at your retina by an retina ophthalmologist can tell. Retina scars are much harder to fix than cornea sclars.  Find an eye MD at www.aao.org
