A member asked:
Can i practise 'pranayam' (deep breathing exercises) like "anulom vilom" (alternate nostril breathing) if i have peripheral thinning on retina of eye?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Will not make worse: Lattice degeneration is a thinning of the peripheral retina from the vitreous gel "pulling" on the retina with a distinctive whitening of the retinal blood vessels. This forms an oval or round patch of "lattice" white blood vessels and a thinned retina. Lattice can be associated with round retinal holes from the thinning and retinal tears at the edge-this can result in retinal detachment.
