Barrage Laser Treatment!
I did my Refractive LASIK surgery on 12th May 2016 and after 3 years when I went for a routine checkup, the retina specialist has detected a Small hole in my Left Eye Retina and has advised Barrage Laser Treatment. Symptoms I face are eye dryness sometimes especially when in office working on computer. I had - 6.25 Myopic number prior to LASIK, but vision is clear after LASIK. The doctor said, the hole could be because of high refractive number before doing LASIK. I have the barrage laser treatment scheduled on 20th July. Can I go ahead with it ? Also, what could be the possible reasons for such small hole developing in Retina ?
