Hi all!
I have some news, which may be interesting for you. I am visiting an eye doc here in Poland. She is a laser specialist. She has worked in the "Laser Dept." for 10 years and told me something like this: "According to the theory the higher myopia you develop the higher is the risk of having a retinal tear/detachment, but
in practice it's not a sure thing
! My professional experience allows me to say, that the group of people, which has the most problems with their retinas is the mid group with myopia on the
level between -4 and -6
."
This is an opinion of a specialist my dears. My opinion is also an additional thing. I have had a refraction disfunction from the day I was bron. First five years it was +, then it went to -, when I was at the age of 5. Now I have almost -9, but never had problems with the retina. I underwent several times an eye check during last motnhs. Everything was superb, except the floaters of course, but this wasn't considered as a problem, as you can imagine.
So, let's wait and see what happens in life
