Before the laser tear retina treatment there was a small shadow in my lower sight. But 1 day after the treatment it is still here. I forgot to tell the doctor I had it. But he told me if a curtain comes into my field of vision I should call the emergency room. I was just wondering if it is common to still have the shadow after the tear laser treatment?
Yes, that can happen. My shadow lasted for several weeks, then eventually went away.
Hi Brandonbs22 : yes that could happen even after cataract if its done by laser my sister went to the doctor for her cataract and he told her that she will have small shadow but later it might get larger. So we did not do it by laser he did surgery for her. But now she has fluid build up at the back of her eye and she start getting injection to get rid off her fluid its been more than a year and it still are there they could not be able to get rid of fluid yet . I was wondering if any one has the same problem I will appreciated if I get some advice on it. I wish you luck with it and try to get second opinion on it.
Also wanted to mention, my shadow (like yours) was after a retina tear was repaired. I asked the doc about it, he just said the same as your doc, watch for a curtain. The shadow did eventually go away.
