I had the laser burn option on my retina, it was very painful, (at least 15 burns) I asked doctor if there was something he could give me when doing the laser burn, he told me there was nothing, suck it up, does anybody know if this is correct in case I go though this again, thanks

Hello mam, my right eye is weak from my childhood and unable to see properly even glasses are unable to set on that eye. I contacted AIIMS's doctor. He said to me that it happens in some cases when the eye's vision is weak from childhood and he suggested to me that no worries about it and just keep everything the same. But sir still, please give me your opinion also. Should I keep my eye in this same condition? Please recommend it to me, mam. Thanks..!

Hi all,
I had floaters for long time on both eyes, tried too many medications, none of them worked, and had an operation on my right eye.
For my left eye, I was told to eat beetroot everyday, and drink water with lemon.
It worked, and my left eye is cleared more than 50% in four months.

I have been dealing with Kaleidoscope vision, this happens when I am awake, strobe light vision is when my eyes are closed. Two days ago I had an arch light in my left eye, that turned into a massive amount of floaters in my left eye.

I have a retina detachment two unsuccessful surgeries now has left me with no vision in my right eye. But continued pain a irritation and flashes all day long. The surgeries failed as a result of several cataract surgeries in the early 60’s.that left me with extensive scar tissue and the retina kept collapsing, I can handle the vision loss but not the pain and flashes. I wish they would just remove the eye. It serves no use other than to cause me pain and distress.
