Seeing stars in my vision

2021-07-27 11:51:21
I have done barrage laser in my right eye seven months ago. From last 2 months I'm seeing stars in my vision on daily basis. I visited the vitreo retina specialist who dilated both my eyes and said everything is ok. He said ignore them. What should I do? Is this side affect of barrage laser?

Hello.. It is exceedingly rare to have halos r star butsts for more than a few days after Lasik…In general, issues with halos, glare, and starbursts will last a few months afetr lasik. Get thorough check up with ur refractive errors n pupil size once . The use of anti-reflective coated lenses can also help to eliminate unwanted glare and halos.

It is vitreous gel, either containing some cells or proteins, which is casting shadow in your eyes. They'll go away when you ignore them, and come back when you think of them. Do they cause any harm? No. Do they occur due to laser? No. Do you need to worry about it? No. Give it some time. Get busy in daily life and go ahead with work. Unless they increase exponentially, you can forget about them.

These are floaters which are very common in high myopes especially those who have undergone barrage laser for retinal degeneration.. as long as vision is fine nothing to worry about them .. but consult a doctor if they increase or hamper the vision

Helo Sir Floaters are usually seen by old people due to liquefaction of gel present in eye and also in high myopia . Nothing to worry. You have to just ignore them. You have to visit ophthalmologist  if they hamper your vision .
Next Steps
Get your fundus examination done every 6 months.
