[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 683707, member: 52972"] I was at work today when I started seeing a floater in the corner of my eye. it continued to expand until it had completely blocked the vision in my left eye. It's like looking through a frosted glass window. All I can see are light and dark shapes. I got an emergency appointment with my eye doctor and he said I have a torn retina. He could not see inside my eye for all the blood so he could not assess the damage. He made an appointment for me tomorrow morning with a retina specialist who has an ustrasound device that will allow him to see the condition of my retina through the blood in my eye. I know they can reattach retinas with a lazer but I suspect that I will have to have surgery with a needle or cutting to get the blood out of my eye. Anyone here ever have a torn/detached retina? What did they do to correct the problem? Thanks, PS: pardon any misspelling or bizare word since I am typing with only one eye and that was is still a little blurry for the drops the eye doctor put in this afternoon. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
