Overkill-once/year is fine.

Thanks. How often should I have the problem checked? The retinal specialist I saw said once a year, but that seems too long of a period to me - seems like every few months would be safer, or is that just overkill?

I have lattice degeneration also as so does 6-7% of all people. It should make no difference in your ability to safely exercise. I adivse patients with lattice to avoid theme park rides that violently whip the head in different directions.

I have lattice retinal degeneration.
It is important to know whether you have "macular degeneration" or "retinal degeneration" since strickly speaking they are not one in the same.
Neither however would be made worse by a vigorous lifestyle/heavy exercise.
I have never had a patient with Stickler syndrome and know only what I read in text books.
