Lattice Degeneration and Barrage Laser

2019-04-23 11:14:58
Hello! Recently I was told that I have lattice degenerated in my right eye (I'm highly myopic with -7.5D in both eyes) and that I should get barrage laser done, so I got it done the very next day. But now after 2 days getting it done I still find that my right eye pupil is slightly larger than my left and not equal. I have little swelling and pain in my right eye. Is it all normal, that I don't have equal pupils yet?

Please get back to your treating ophthalmologist. Because he will be the best man to diagnose it and treat accordingly.

Hello! Barrage laser is done as a preventive step for lattice degeneration. There are known cases of unequal pupil size between the two eyes. However I would like to emphasis that swelling and pain might take a couple of days to subside. Best would be to bring this to the notice of your treating doctor !
