[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 762020, member: 23706"] This can't be fixed by anything except surgery. And many don't need surgery. But if it starts to affect your life that's when surgery is suggested. In my case, I can't drive at all. The white line on the street keeps swaying back and forth and looks wavy so I literally can't tell where the road really is. I almost had an accident but I was in the middle of nowhere so if I had pulled over for help, I could not have explained where I was. It was just trees. My better eye was not enough to help me see well. I slowed way down and made it. The sun bothered me too. I already had a good eye exam but he was an ophamologist only, not a retinal specialist. I see one Monday. I hope to have surgery as I see wavy lines from that eye and can't drive at all. Also I can't judge depth perception and even walking is not clear. I almost walk into walls! I now know others who had a macular pucker and surgery. I found them after I posted here. Thanks for all the advice and caring. [/QUOTE]
