글로벌이미지
Is it possible that my vision will not fully recover even after successful retinal surgery?

Yes. Even when surgery successfully reattaches the retina, vision may not return to its previous level. Recovery can be limited if the macula, which is responsible for central vision, has remained detached for a prolonged period. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment of retinal detachment are therefore important. If the macula is still attached, urgent treatment may help preserve central vision. The expected visual outcome depends on macular involvement, the duration of detachment, and the degree of retinal damage.

I had LASIK or LASEK years ago, but my vision has become blurry again. Can I have another procedure?
A second procedure may be possible, but the first step is to identify why your vision has changed. Treatment will differ depending on whether the cause is residual nearsightedness or astigmatism, dry ...

Why does vision sometimes get worse again after laser eye surgery?
There are several possible reasons, including progression of myopia, dry eye, residual astigmatism, corneal changes, and age-related changes in the natural lens. A vision test and detailed corneal exa...

Why is corneal thickness particularly important for a second laser procedure?
An enhancement procedure removes additional tissue from a cornea that has already undergone surgery. We consider the residual stromal bed, total corneal thickness, corneal shape, and expected treatmen...

Can glare and halos that started after LASIK be treated?
Additional treatment may be considered if glare and halos are related to an irregular cornea or the position of the original treatment zone. However, dry eye, pupil size, or changes in the natural len...

How long after my first surgery should I wait before considering an enhancement?
The decision is not based on a fixed waiting period alone. What matters most is whether your prescription has stabilized, whether the cornea and tear film have recovered adequately, and whether the re...

What is the difference between monofocal and multifocal intraocular lenses?
A monofocal intraocular lens is generally designed to focus at one distance. Multifocal lenses are designed to reduce reliance on glasses at multiple distances. However, some multifocal IOLs can cause...

Why do I need a retinal examination before cataract surgery?
Retinal conditions such as epiretinal membrane, age-related macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy can affect visual outcomes and the choice of IOL. When indicated, we perform a dilated retina...

My vision is still blurry after cataract surgery. Do I need another operation?
Not necessarily. Blurry vision after cataract surgery can have several causes, including residual nearsightedness or astigmatism, dry eye, posterior capsule opacification, IOL position, or retinal dis...
