In my case, I have 20/20 in my left eye but the doctors tell me I need Yag surgery. My only problem is some glare at night looking at lights ie headlights but...
Jenny, I know what are talking about, it is in the lower left corner of my eye. it is a raised thickening or something. I just thought is was scar tissue...
At time I can feel the buckle in my left eye. I have had no problems with that buckle. I think it depends on where the buckle is on your eye. Debby rd both...

Hi Peter (and friends), Your bubble has grown? Nah! It may have changed position and become flatter, but it's a certain amount of gas and can't really grow....
Hiyah, I recently posted on just such a thing - 17th of last month. Try the link I have placed in the subject line. Hope things are ok for you. jjka67...
Thanks to all who mentioned back about their buckles. The Dr. said all is well with the right eye and Rx a med to help with the inflamation. Thinks is an...
My Surgeon advised that the bubble will absorb additional gas from my fluids and quite possible - visibly - enlarge. He also cleared me to fly next week...
Make sure your bubble is gone before you get onto a plane as the change in altitude will affect the bubble in your eye. Patients who have intraocular air...
WOW! Good luck Peter. Sure wouldn't think that would happen, but I'm no doctor - just a patient. My bubble started to decrease in size after about the first...
Well - I've got to go with the opinion of the guy who went to Med School. Peter Printing up bumper stickers that say Believe the Doctors _____ From:...
Certainly, I wouldn't have it done for sport either. My treatment(s) with Yag, (each eye) were more than six years apart, and were not at all uncomfortable....

Norine, I know you have been suffering for a long time so you are not whining. Have you consulted an independent retina specialist? How long has vision been...
Norine, I do not have crystal clear vision out of my RD (right) eye. I view things smaller, distorted and slightly lower. I have scar tissue at my macula....
Gosh darn Norine - not good news, and here at the holiday season as well - yes, we do get so saddened when we come back from a physician's appointment without...
Norine, it will be okay. Trust me over half of us have been told by the retina doctor that this is all they can do including me. I have scar tissue and fluid...
I had a detached retina in my right eye. I am 55 years old with near sight. Had surgery about 7 weeks ago. Detachement happened suddenly. I was at work, and...
I had my detachment about 9 months ago. I was a personal trainer and loved to run on the treadmill. I was told by my doctor that I probably wouldnt run again...
Everyone's detachment was different, so there is no one answer to what you can do. My surgeon and retina specialist both said to resume a normal life, but for...
