@kwgriff For some people a simple laser does it. It might not be a permanent cure so you have to do a pressure check often. Ask what the next step is if the pressure rises. Research all the next steps so you can make a good decision if you have to.

I saw my retina specialist in January and everything was stable. I saw her again in June and I had macula edema which explained my recent issues with fine print. I got a shot of Elyea in the eye and that reversed it. The second was last week and the third next month.

You have to watch for anything new and act on it.

@carmine100 Ah, thanks for the information and advice. Prior to July 10, my only eye problem was nearsightedness and astigmatism.

I go back to see the Dr. on Oct 23 and will be researching every chance I can get between now and then. I'll write down my questions and record his answers.

I've also already learned many things through this group.
