Good afternoon,

I wanted to consult this for the forum because I have taken from adolescence dreaming of taking my glasses and correcting myopia and I don't know if someone will have experience in it and can speak it.In my case, I have an inactive proliferative diabetic retinopathy, without affectation in the macula, but with a lot of laser to prevent it from going to major problems, all, consequence of a bad time, of abandonment, which I lived during adolescence.I am finding different opinions by the specialists.That said, I don't know if someone has seen in my situation and could tell their experience.

Thanks in advance.

I have wore glasses and then lenses from the age of 6.Let's see I had operated about 3 or 4 years, I was 6 and 6.5 of mypia and astigmatism I also had no I remember that, they did not want to operate because I was diabetic so I stopped going to normal clinics and I went to look for the bestnational.Until I contact Del Ophtamologic Dr. Ramon Gutierrez who did not put any paste for it, one of the first ophthalmogos to do cornea transplant but I remember badly.It is one of the best ophthalmologists nationwide.I am very happy with the operation.
It is true that the day of the operation good the previous days I was taking calmly from the nerves I had, and the night I was about to say I did not work.Then the operation is nothing, when I ask if I was going to tell me, we have finished now we are going for the other eye, I could not believe it.I got up seeing blurry but I saw something, the next morning I read the car enrollments living on a 9 floor.Life totally changed me.

I have been some time with problems accessing difficulties with my email.They seem to be already resolved.There is no probma with refractive surgery in relation to "inactive" proliferating retinopathy.Entrectomillo inactive because this qualifier requires total rotatingness.Of course, if you have been treated with abundant laser, you can be quite calm.In any case, a diabetic can operate refractive surgery if it meets all the requirements of the candidate, which are common to all patients, diabetics included

@Vitrichenko, two years ago I operate with multifocal intraocular lentilla the myopia.A few months later I gave me Laser Lasik to remove some astigmatism.Everything went well, well I had vitreo detachment but it could have happened without operations in between.At the moment everything is fine, I would do it again.
Welcome again @"javieroftalmologist"

I see that it has done well, I'm glad.The vitreous detachment in strong myopias is almost physiological.Ñ
