Been diagnose with (Bilateral) Vitroretinopathy and Vitreopathy (already have dry md)

0 Replies

I have been diagnosed with (bilateral age-related) vitroretinopathy. I don't fully understand what it is, butd from what I've read it causes vision loss and any invasive procedures are not normally successful and can cause vision loss. I haven't had a retinal tear but have had pvds. I also have degenerative vitreopathy in one eye and have (bilateral) dry md. Does anyone have vitroretinopathy or vitreopathy and have they received successful treatment for it please.
