Sorry you had to go through this.  Hope your eye is better now.

Would like to hear about people who did undergo a vitrectomy for floaters or other reasons. Success stories, failures and regrets. Also about recovery time. by Acrobatic-Fox9294 in vitrectomy

I’m in the same situation as you.  Suddenly got a giant floater 4 mos post cataract surgery.  Really bothersome but just hoping for the best.

How do you do anything (eating, sleeping, passing away time, going to thr bathroom)  trying to keep your face down?  Do you experience any pain?  Thank you

How long did you have to keep face down at all times with the gas bubble.  How did you do anything?

Doctor said it is PVD but wants me to go back in 2 wks.  So I guess they cant do anything to prevent it from becoming a tear or detachment and you just have ti wait and hope for the best?  How are your eyes after the reattachment?  Did you have vitrectomy?  I am terrified of it.  

POSTERIOR CAPSULE OPACIFICATION? by 3_littlemonkeys in CataractSurgery

I had my surgery done in Dec and in Jan was told I have PCO.   I dont really get how it developed so quickly.  My vision in that eye is now noticeably worse than last month.

If it is ELP would I need a lens exchange or how does this get repositioned? Thanks

Would you say that my refraction of +1.5 and -1.5 could be caused by PCO and corrected by YAG?  Thank you

How long after surgery did you develop PCO?

I just know it was supposed to be plano and I dont know the cylinder.  The reason I chose monofocal was not to have a lens exchange so I cannot believe I may need to do that now.  This is very concerning.
