SCARRING OF THE RETINA

[msgolddocter]

Is having scarring in the back of the retina a common problem?  Is surgery to make a correction dangerous?  How could the scarring occur?

My 3 yr old daughter has been diagnosed with this problem, and they say she has no chance of regaining her sight in her right eye due to the scarring, yet you can see with the help of glasses? So maybe glasses would help her?

I have been recovering from a freak accident where a forein object was 3 inches into my head just below my left eye. Im lucky to be alice and still have my eye. I had ocular plastic surgery and was give implants of a new orbital floor and rim because both were blown out. My only problem now is dealing with retinal and macular hemmorages (im a terrible speller). The hemmorages have been clearin and my vision improved from 20/400 to 20/200, it was 20/20 before the trauma (I am almost 4 weeks post trauma). I turned 18 in an induced coma a day after the accident. I am concerned about scar tissue in my retina after the blood clears. Do you think I have any chance of full recovery or will there be any breakthroughs in retinal treatment in the neasr future? Also, do you have any reccomondations for every day lifestyle that can improve vision such as diets w. lutien. Your opinion is well appretiated.

My son is an MMA fighter. He was told by his eye dr that he has a retinal scar and if he continues to fight, he could go blind with just one hard blow to the head and/or eye area.  

Is there any type of surgery that can be done to remove the scar and make it possible for him to continue fighting? If yes, what would be the name of the surgery for which I would ask my doctor to consider.
