You should trust your current retina specialist. With the current symptoms and PVD is diagnosed with dilated retinal exam + OCT scan then the diagnosis is likely correct. Take care.

Had PVD 4 years ago. Recently had a new black floater so saw optho for dilated exam and OCT which were normal. Would these tests have picked up retinal or macular problems. The floater has disappeared now and doc said it was debris. Thoughts please?
