At my most recent eye test my optician told me that she found a slight scar on my retina in my right eye so I'm going to go to hospital soon to have it properly checked out there. She told me that it isn't anything to really worry about but as this is the first time anyone has spotted this she wants to check that everything is okay. Has anyone ever experienced something like this before? I haven't experienced any problems with my vision and my optician told me to go straight to hospital if I notice a sudden increase in floaters but luckily I've never had any problems with the few floaters I have, I barely notice them unless I look for them so hopefully this will continue. She also told me that it could just be natural degeneration or something to do with the pigmentation - has anyone ever heard of anything like this? Would that be something that would need to be fixed?
