Advised for Barrage laser

2018-10-22 14:42:02
I went for the eye checkup and doctor said that my nerves in the retina are weak and advised to do barrage laser. I don't have any knowledge about that.. will it be painful? Does it involves any surgery.? And for what it is done for? I have recently switched to progessive lens and i have constant headache for the past 10 days. So Is it safe to do barrage laser now?
