View allI have myopia with 5 and 4 power in my right and left eye and recently started seeing flashes. I also have retinal degeneration. I've seen four doctors two recommended barrage laser as a precaution while the other two said to wait unless my retina detaches. I'm 28 and unsure if I should get the laser done now or wait. If I do go for it, should it be done in one session for both eyes or split into multiple sittings? What would you suggest?
Barrage laser can prevent retinal detachment in high-risk degeneration; it’s usually safe to do both eyes in one sitting—go ahead if advised by retina specialist.

my dad is 65 and needs cataract surgery the doctor recommended replacing his lens with an artificial one is that safe or are there risks should we consider laser treatment instead
Yes, cataract surgery where the natural lens is replaced with an artificial lens is generally safe and effective, especially in older adults. There are risks associated with any surgery, but lens replacement is considered a very safe procedure with a high success rate. Laser-assisted cataract surgery is a variation that some surgeons may offer, and it can have some benefits, but the choice between traditional and laser-assisted surgery is typically based on individual factors
