Wonderful to hear lazer treatments worked so well for you and your eye sight is that good👍🏻 Our time frame is similar, in 1986 photos ‘spot light’ type photos 36 each visit were used to diagnose eye problem. Retinopathy developed after couple years and was watched closely. Then in 2021 on New Year’s Day, I woke up with red flame like imagine in right eye. Contacted eye institute, immediate appt and blood vessel bleeding. Retina specialist clearly stated I needed eye injection to heal the bleed. Dr said injections work wonders and I believed that was all I would need and be finished. No, I’ve been going every 4 mths for injection and now it’s every 3 mths. But they help and I can see to read, drive etc🙏🏻
