I recently experienced a retinal tear due to butting heads with one of my dogs. The dog is fine, but I got a retinal tear. I immediately went to a specialist who laser "tack welded" the retina in place. I cannot exercise, lift anything or do anything strenuous for 14 days. I am under the assumption that I can return to normal activity after this which for me is scuba diving. I mentioned that to the doctor at the time of the surgery, but he was more concerned with the next 14 days and healing.
So if anyone has any experience with this please share. I'll keep you posted on my progress. So far the weld has kept the retina in place.
