Lattice Degeneration and Floaters
I have floaters (vietroretinal degeneration) since 2019, it increased last year doctor and retina specialist mentioned it lattice degeneration, after 2 3 months he mentioned barrage laser as isn't needed as of now we will monitor. I have two questions: 1. After barrage laser floaters will increase or decrease? 2. I have too many floaters i can notice while working on screen whenever white background comes and reading too, should i go for floater only victronomy ? I'm software engineer and having mostly works on screen

Floaters are the symptoms only... Barrage laser will manage the lattice degeneration.. And instead of going for vitrectomy for floaters monitor them and when they increase many folds suddenly or there are flashes of light then go consult a retina Dr nearby
Next Steps
Barrage for lattice to prevent Retinal detachment and monitoring of floaters
