[QUOTE="Dark Horse, post: 1147181, member: 52527"] Yes. It can happen after PRP (pan-retinal photocoagulation) for proliferative retinopathy. Usually it clears up on its own but if it persists it may need follow-up. Extract from [URL]https://www.wwl.nhs.uk/Library/All_New_PI_Docs/Audio_Leaflets/Opthalmology/Laser_Treatment/ophth005_laser_treatment_for_drandM_916v3.pdf[/URL] "If you need an intensive course of laser treatment to control the changes in your eyes, you may notice a temporary worsening of your sight due to the macula (the small, highly sensitive central area of the retina) becoming waterlogged. This should sort itself out, but needs treatment in a small number of cases." [/QUOTE]
