I've been diagnosed with a retina issue and my doctor recommended barrage laser surgery, but I'm really nervous about it they didn't make me feel confident about the procedure. Can you suggest a skilled and patient-friendly retina surgeon who specializes in barrage laser? I need to get this done soon but want to make sure I'm in good hands.

Barrage laser is safe and done to prevent retinal detachment; seek a retina specialist known for patient care—your doctor can refer a trusted one.

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.

Can PRK surgery be detected during a railway medical exam since it's not allowed for the job I know LASIK is also banned but I'm more worried about PRK showing up on their eye tests
PRK can be detected during a railway medical exam, although it's not as easily detected as LASIK. While LASIK involves creating a flap that can be seen, PRK doesn't, making it more difficult to detect with standard slit lamp examinations. However, advanced tests like corneal topography can detect PRK, and some residual scarring from PRK can also be visible on slit lamp examination.
