Vitrectomy for cloudy vitreous and floaters

I am 68. It was 3 years ago. Boston is a great place to be for this. I was like a child after it healed.. (a day or two) just walking around and looking at everything as if seeing clearly for the first time. I did not realize how much time I was using trying to shift the spots around or how much sight I was missing. The long term effect is just moderate dry eyes but restasis has helped tremendously. I have no regrets and highly recommend!

hello-Teacher and Ferd-
I am having somekind of issue after cataract surgery (10 months ago!!!)--one dr. has suggested that it is a big attached floater.....I am in Boston...who were your drs.?????

Hello Teacher502. Thanks for answering my questions last year. I'm still considering vitrectomy for my severe floaters/vitreous opacity. I'm curious, a year later, if you are still happy with your results. And if there are any long-term effects from your vitrectomy. Thank you.
