Patient's question:
I have my two eyes with myopia over 400 degrees. Three months ago, I had a thorough examination in the hospital for vitreous opacity, with flashes of light, and recently the flashes have worsened. I would like to consult a doctor about the causes of vitreous opacity and flashes of light, and how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Vitreous opacity and photopsia have worsened, accompanied by 400-degree myopia. This may lead to symptoms of retinal detachment. Currently, a fundus angiography needs to be performed for a thorough examination and diagnosis. If the symptoms are detected in their early stages, they may not affect vision. It is necessary to pay close attention and monitor the condition, avoid strenuous exercise in the future, and maintain adequate deep sleep, which will help control the condition. If the vision is severely affected, surgical treatment will be required.
