>>1333101>so will i loose my vision? > Depending on the retinal hole’s stage of progression, the condition might be considered a medical emergency. When the retinal hole reaches an advanced stage, it can cause retinal detachment, which can lead to permanent partial or total vision loss. However, it should be noted that even if the retinal hole hasn’t progressed to an “emergency” level, it is still highly serious and should be addressed with an eye doctor immediately.> During laser treatment, an ophthalmologist uses a laser device to perform “photocoagulation” of the tissue surrounding the hole. As the name implies, photocoagulation uses light (“photo”) to seal (“coagulate”) the tissue by heating it to a precise temperature. The heat triggers local cells to produce the proteins that create scar tissue, closing the holes.>It is worth noting that due to the costs and risks associated with any type of surgery, a doctor may opt to monitor very small holes over time instead of treating them immediatelyhttps://norlase.com/retinal-holes/>she said i need laser surgeryShe's going probably right then. You should make a list of all the questions you have, then phone back and ask them. From what I've read, the surgery is important, if I were in that situation I would undergo significant personal hardship rather than pass up such a surgery.
