Post ERM surgery and glaucoma testing.
I had macular pucker surgery 8 weeks ago and doing well. I'm also a glaucoma suspect and my yearly appt with a specialist is scheduled for next week. I'm concerned that all the testing,especially the bright lights may be too much for my still-healing retina? I'm wondering if I should wait a couple months.
You have a couple of options. 1. ask your retina surgeon 2. ask your glaucoma surgeon. Both should say yes. If either says no then you can post-pone a couple of months. Most of the glaucoma tests will not be affected by your surgery.
