Lattice fear
Hi . I have lattice but without any holes or tears . My report says ocular exam : WNL . I have a bit of an anxiety problem so I keep thinking that something maliganant will develop although I've been told that lattice is a benign and harmless condition which only needs regular monitoring

Lattice is just like a stretched cloth which is liable to be torn if stretched uneven or excessive. But all the time it doesn't get torn off.so take it easy follow the instructions of your doctor. Anxiety will not solve the problem.
