Asked for female, 25 years doctors found lattice degeneration in both my eyes. I have never had flashes but had some usual floaters but it was never a problem for me. Finally I decided to go ahead with a laser barrage treatment in both eyes. Its just been 10 days and I am seeing twinkly or flash like thing in the lower periphery of both eyes. Do I need immediate follow-up or is it fine if I go after 6 month as per doctor update.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. If you had laser surgery or cryopexy, you should be able to resume normal activities within days, but you should take care not to do anything too strenuous until your eye has healed. If you had retinal reattachment surgery, you can expect to return to work and many other normal activities within two weeks. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
Hello. You can follow up after 6 months. In between if you experience 1. A fall of curtain like shadow or 2. A sudden appearance of floaters (black floating spots in front of your eyes) or 3. Sudden and profound decrease in vision, in that case you should immediately consult a retina specialist. Hope this helps. You can reach me out anytime for discussing your case in detail and for any further queries. Thank you.
