Avatar f tn I am conimplating having it done by Dr. Wolf in Michigan, but I am just looking for some feedback from patients who had had the surgery. I am hoping it will help, as I have passed 6 stones in the past couple of weeks, I constantly have flank pain and UTI's. I have 2 boys (6 yr old and a 2 yr old). My six year old asked when I would be able to play again cause I am always sick.
Avatar f tn It is very rare to put in a scleral buckle for just a retinal tear. Usually, it is treated with laser or cryo. A horseshoe tear is treated immediately. Treatment is usually not needed if the a detachment does not occur within three months. The indication for treatment is an acute symptomatic retinal tear. You need to see your doctor regarding the vision in the right eye. Also, Google treatment of horseshoe tears and read about the indication for treatment. Dr. O.
Avatar f tn From what I understand she is heading up a chiari clinic at Beaumont Neuroscience in Royal Oak, Michigan. Although I contacted her office at Michigan Head and Spine Institute in Southfield, MI. I did search her name on this site and some members have had surgery with her. Maybe another name to add to the list??
Avatar f tn My bro-law had the Crystalens implants for his cataract surgery last year in Michigan. Cost him about $5K out of pocket, but he loves them and would do it again in a heartbeat. His only problem was the cataracts, so I can't comment on the vitrectomy pros/cons. Good luck, and keep us informed on your decision.
Avatar m tn I do not live in the Michigan area so I would not be able to recommend a neurosurgeon. It would be helpful to contact your regional hospital and obtain the names of three or four neurosurgeons who have performed cervical discecftomies and fusions. You can then evaluate them based on their background, medical expertise and consultations regarding which surgery they recommend.

Avatar n tn My question is, as I am so shortsighted, is it OK to have the Laser Cataract Surgery? I ask this because the Laser Cataract Surgery is said to be less traumatic to the eye. I wonder if Dr John C Hagan III could answer this question, as I know his son also works in his practice and he is a retinal expert? Also do you fit the New nanoflex IOL?
Avatar f tn Some holes predispose you to having a retinal detachment so laser barricade is sometimes advised to prevent this. It is not major surgery and is done in the office. Discuss the risks with your surgeon. Lens exam with indirect ophthalmoscopes helps your surgeon both see and laser the holes.
Avatar f tn Any surgery is scary and you need to find the best neurosurgeon with LOTS of experience helping TN patients. You need to ask the tough questions -- what's the best and the worst scenario? What are the side effects? How many TN procedures has this surgeon performed? MRIs are notorious for not showing blood vessels, but Dr. Janeta (Pittsburgh) and Dr. Casey (Michigan) both experts -- have stated that invariably they find a blood vessel or vein when they perform an MVD.
Avatar f tn The U-shaped tear is also called a Horshoe Tear. If retina doc is recommending laser (aka "barrier laser" to form a barrier of laser around the tear), then I'd do it. Sure, there are risks. Nothing is risk free, but the risk of not treating is much much higher than the risk of doing the procedure. Sincerely, Timothy D. McGarity, M.D.
