Q: Lattice Degeneration surgery
asked by: robpom on October 13th, 2008

Last month, my retinal specialist determined I had lattice degeneration and that I had a hole that needed to be repaired via laser surgery.

My question pertains to future holes, etc. Does having one tear/hole predispose me for a stronger likelihood of future tears? Or, is there no real correlation - as in just because I had one tear doesn't mean anything about future occurrences

Retinal detachment is usually avoided if retinal tears are found and treated. See the prognosis section of the website referenced above.
