Treatment Options for 67 YO Patient With History of Detached Retina and Cataracts

Posted By Patient Letter to the Editor On July 11, 2011 @ 8:43 am In Cataract,Retina | Comments Disabled

Eight years ago, following surgery to correct a macular hole in my left eye, my retina detached twice. I had it repaired, but then the eye developed a cataract, which was removed a few months later. My vision in that eye is still distorted, i.e. lines are not straight and i cannot read since vision is still blurred.

I am 67 years old and short sighted.

Any thoughts on treatment options?
