I pray for all here with eye conditions and wish every one well with their surgeries.I have had epi retinal membrane for months and as you all know who have it,it drives one nuts.I do not know how we can live with this for the rest of our lives.I can't read out of my bad eye and am seeing Dr.Sophie Bakri mid August.I keep thinking ok lets get this membrane peeled off the macula and that will help with the blurriness.Does anyone have any experiences with Dr.Bakri and would you advise to have surgery,as my quality of life has been like the Titanic,BLESSINGS to all and thanks for taking the time to reply,Thank you Brian from Canada!

I'm also in Canada. I have surgery scheduled for October for macular pucker, and I don't know whether to do it or cancel. I live alone and am very concerned about the recovery period if it includes having to be in a face down position as I live alone. My doctor's office in Newmarket advises that you need to be face down for 24-48 hours, but I have read about many people who have to do it for much longer. My doc says it is better to do it now as the surgery is more difficult if it gets much worse. So confusing.
Best wishes to you Brian.
