A member asked:
I had argon laser session to treat a hole in my retina last week, what can i do and not to do? i cried today, is it safe? is it safe to go to work? i am a phlebotomist, will i continue to see flashes and floaters?

Okay to work: Repairing the retina should prevent flashes and new floaters, Old floaters will likely remain. If your vision is okay and you feel well, it is okay to return to work. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
