I had a detached retina, and i had the uva operated. because i am on blood thinners they forgot to see if my blood was to? what should i do?

Blood thinners: Since you have already had the surgery, it should no longer be an issue. If you need blood thinners, you should continue to take them and foolowup with the eye surgeon and your regular doctor.
