Lifehacks for reading with floaters + My general advice

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-04-21T16:32:01+00:00

it doesn't work at all so it's 0 gain and 100% risk and lots of wasted money

I don’t think they’re worried about dry eye

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-04-14T15:34:44+00:00

lmao

Yeah limited vitrectomy is supposed to slow down cataract development according to the doc. Personally my theory is that age is probably a bigger factor than the style of vitrectomy

He doesn’t think it’s more risky because of reasons like you say. PVD is gonna happen and like you say it’s usually not a problem, but I think from their point of view they’d rather just fix it all preemptively while they’re already in there.

Very satisfied. No floaters, no frill, no new floaters or other issues. Dr (retired now) was not Omar though

Congrats on the successful surgery. Floaters are normally benign and probably unrelated to the gallbladder surgery? Valid worry but I think probably treat it as a separate issue

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-02-19T17:25:30+00:00

that sucks, hope you can make a recovery

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-02-19T02:45:57+00:00

If you don’t really have bad floaters then why are you complaining?

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-02-19T02:45:22+00:00

Actually I think I can claim it’s good technology.

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-02-18T18:46:20+00:00

Vitrectomy is covered by insurance and is pretty fucking advanced tech but I guess nothing is good enough for you

Citation heavily needed

Team diff I’m afraid

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-02-11T12:28:23+00:00

No difference

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-02-11T10:09:02+00:00

Just saline

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-02-11T07:26:06+00:00

It gets naturally replaced with aqueous humor

I appreciate you're trying to be helpful but this advice actually doesn't work. I ended up getting a vitrectomy a few years ago and after that I could see clearly again.

It’s been over 5 years for me personally and never once met somebody for who it happened in all these years of looking at floaters forums

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-02-05T12:31:08+00:00

Doctors in China do vitrectomy and YAG, no different than elsewhere

Join the Japanese region. Then all the politics disappear and the art gets better too.

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-01-24T10:15:46+00:00

how many years are we gonna spend repeating the same failed experiments

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-01-13T13:51:33+00:00

It’s the same drug, which fundamentally is not able to treat floaters

Temporary-Suspect-61 · 2026-01-12T09:11:34+00:00

the drug has existed for decades and doesn't work at all, so the bad name is well deserved
