Common Questions and Answers about Laser surgery healing

laser

Avatar m tn Both say its nothing urgent, since it down and not up. One of them says it can and should be treated with laser, another one says laser will not work, we should let it heal on its own, but if it progresses, go to surgery. Its been 6 months now since injury, so if it didn't heal by now, is there still a chance it will heal in the future? How long it takes in average to heal, if it heals? Should i wait or proceed with laser? Thank you.
Avatar f tn Laser surgery: A technique that involves using a beam of high-energy light to cut away the upper surface of the skin. The procedure is very precise, although the laser focus can be adjusted to resurface larger areas. It also stimulates both blood supply and collagen production - the support network for skin tissue. Just be aware that it can take about 10 months for collagen to regenerate, so don't expect to see the finished results until then.
Avatar f tn I saw the surgeon today and was advised that the lens is tilted as one of the hinges is keeping it tilted. She recommended laser surgery to correct it. I am hesitant to go that route as I researched and picked the crystalens and paid for it so I could have vision at all levels. i qm qlso concerned that the laser surgery may correct it for awhile and then another hing gets stuck.
Avatar f tn As a generalization this type of pain would not be typical of laser surgery healing for a torn retina. It might be related to the flu.
Avatar f tn ten days later he did more laser in his office wiht a fine laser and another shot of steroid.
Avatar f tn I was told about a month ago that i had sever hpv and had to have the chunk of my uterus affected removed so that it would not get worse. I had to go in a week later and have surgery to get it removed. They scraped the area out and used a laser to burn it afterwards to make sure they got it all. It's been about 2 weeks since my surgery. The last couple of days however I have been losing pieces from my uterus when I go to the washroom.
Avatar f tn For my two with disk disease, (One has had the surgery, the other I chose not to), Acupuncture with laser makes an incredible difference!!! Neither dog takes any prescription pain management, just joint supplements & prescribed herbs for backs......I got the one that had the surgery (He was paralyzed) feeling so good, he tore an ACL and had to have it repaired! ;) He still runs like the wind, jumps & plays.....His back surgery was 5 years ago, his knee was repaired 2 yrs. ago........
1778927 tn?1381878747 I have had laser surgery to correct CSR in my left eye. Over the past two weeks I have noticed a purple hue when driving at night. It seems to come from car lights and is a deep purple color. During the day I will notice fleeting light purple dots off in my peripheral vision as well. Is this a normal side affect of CSR or laser therapy? I had the laser about 4 months ago. Will it ever go away?
Avatar f tn I have Moderate tendinosis of the mid and posterior supraspinatus tendon, with bursal surface fraying. Grade 1 strain of the posterior supraspinatus muscle. Mild subacromial bursitis.I did 3 months of physio which didn't help and I'm currently in my 6th week of doing laser treatment and ultrasound therapy and still no improvement. Would surgery help?
Avatar m tn Just under a month ago I had a very slightly raised mole about the same diameter as a pencil eraser removed from my cheek via radio surgery. It scabbed up within a few days and finally fell of about 8 days ago. Currently it is bright pink and there is a fairly good sized divot where the mole used to be. Will that eventually fill in some or will it be like that permanently? I am currently keeping it covered during the day and applying moisturizer at night and exposing it to open air.
Avatar m tn However, my surgeon told me that he does not recommend a laser surgery. In his opinion, a laser surgery may hinder subsequent operations on the retina if need arises. Is this really the case? What is the latest research/experience in this respect? Thanks very much. Thanks very much.
Avatar n tn I had laser surgery on my right eye to correct a retinal tear and lattice degeneration three days ago. Swelling is gone as are the floaters I was experiencing before. However, whenever I look to a certain direction, I feel as if I have a spot or something in the bottom of my eye. Is this a part of the healing process? I’m afraid to go back and be told there’s another tear. Thanks in advance.
1778927 tn?1381878747 Things are still wavy and I see a purple/red hue off to the left of my eye. My question is that since the laser surgery it appears almost that there are 2 spots now so is it typical for the bubble (mine was oblong) to heal in different sections creating the illusion of 2 spots? I am worried that a new spot may be appearing or is this a normal part of the healing process? Thank you for any info. I have a recheck on Dec 15th.
Avatar m tn Now i want to know is laser treatment necessary now or will it healing as usually. Sir please respond and send your kind response to my mail my mail address is shahi.
Avatar m tn I am 23 years old and I had retinal detachment surgery in which my right eye was treated with a gass bubble and a scleral buckle for reattachment of the retina. My left eye had small holes and tears which were sealed back by laser treatment. I was told that my retina i the right eye had detached past the macula point. I understand that I will not be able to see fine details and probably will not gain full 20/20 vision back in the right eye.
Avatar n tn t for the laser from the first surgery it would have been so much worse the second time. The second surgery they put the buckle around and I have been in a lot of pain ever since. It has been 3 weeks and every time I do anything like reading under a bright light or move around to much the pain is unbearable. I also had bleeding for a few days which I called the doctor he said it was normal just the muscles trying to re position themselves. I also got no pain meds.
Avatar f tn Has anyone had experience with low level laser therapy to help with healing after surgery, or in the case of a pseudo?
Avatar m tn ) The corneal abrasion was “central” in front of the pupil and I have blurry vision identical to what I used to have with astigmatism (before cataract surgery when I had implanted a toric lens.) No pain any longer, and I am using Thealoz Duo lubricating drops during the day and Thealoz Duo gel at night. ( I did have an antibiotic treatment for 3 days as well.
Avatar m tn any cream or something to remove the burn scar?
Avatar f tn They found stage 2 endometriosis and removed it with a laser. It was scattered on my uterus, bladder and was pinning my left ovary down to my uterus. They also did an HSG and said my tubes were wide open. I had what I would call a fairly easy recovery. I had gas pains but not severe and was back to work for a half day on the Friday after my (Monday) surgery. I’ve been feeling pretty good and actually signed up to go back to pilates today.
Avatar n tn 2006 Verisyse lens, and iridectomy. Current diagnose with cataract. 2006 unsuccessful laser floater surgery. Thick cornea. • My right eye is filled with multiple floaters, and the vitreous is extremely cloudy, weiss ring. Although if necessary with eye movement I can read an eye chart 20/20. Floaters do not bother me, but the cloudy vitreous makes simple functions, tv, pc, and reading challenging.
Avatar f tn I had cataract surgery in my left eye, I was supposed to get far vision in both eyes & have reading glasses, I ended up with very close vision 6 in to 18 in in the left eye & I can see a ring around the outside of my eye when I read, model sn60wf 25.0d. I now have a ghost image to the left side of all objects in the left eye & a kinked capsule that also gives me a white star burst diagonally . so the surgeon adjusted the next cataract lens in my right to sn60wf 24.
Avatar m tn There was a lot of bleeding in my eye. As a result, my cataract surgery was postponed. My doctor decided to do laser surgery on my other eye (left, weaker eye) to make my retina stay attached. He didn't do laser on the eye with the vitreous detachment. After two months, he felt I was ready for the cataract surgery. My right eye, with the vitreous tear, did not come through with the positive result of the other eye.
