What was your experience with vitrectomy eye surgery?

Vitrectomy on my left eye to remove significant floaters and vitreous opacity 1 month ago. And did my right eye one week ago as well. Seeing absolutely perfectly, no pain. Just a few weeks of no lifting or hard physical activity and then I'm back doing everything again. I made sure to have a really good doctor! Do your homework on that, definitely.

Thank you for sharing! I had cataract surgeries last year and after a brief period of absolutely pristine vision developed bad floaters in both eyes. After more than 10 months of waiting, hoping that my "brain would learn to ignore the floaters" (didn't happen), I am now scheduled for my first vitrectomy. Hoping to regain that perfect vision again.

@ferd64 I agree that finding an excellent doctor is key but do you have any hints on how to do that?
