Hello
Have you undergone LASIK and barrage lasers in both eyes?? Barrage laser is done to seal any small retinal break in the peripheral retina common in myopes.
Your symptoms if they have increased you should visit an eye clinic soon and undergo complete fundus evaluation.
To see if new breaks have developed.
You should be in a 3 monthly follow up, and visit in between if you develop such symptoms.
Health Tips
Floaters are common in myopes, however if your getting pain/ flashes of light, sudden increase in th floaters etc ,time to do a full evaluation.
