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.

I'm a 27-year-old guy with good vision but I have a lazy eye. Sometimes my left eye drifts outward and other times it's my right eye. Is there a permanent surgery to fix this?
Yes, a type of surgery called strabismus surgery can address eye misalignment, including drifting or wandering eyes (exotropia), and can potentially correct or improve the issue. However, it's important to understand that this surgery corrects the eye misalignment, and not necessarily the "lazy eye" or amblyopia itself

I have a squint eye and I'm considering surgery but I'm worried it might cause vision loss is that a common risk or are there safer options to fix this
Vision loss is not a common risk with squint surgery, but it's important to be aware of potential risks, including temporary vision changes, double vision, and in rare cases, a permanent decrease in vision. There are safer, non-surgical options like vision therapy, glasses, and prism lenses that can address squint without the risks of surgery
