I am a diabetic and have had laser surgery to stop bleeding. It was several years ago and I only had it done in one eye. Unfortunately, or fortunately, I keep forgetting which eye had the surgery. That comment should indicate to you that I did not have any adverse affects from the surgery.

Good Luck

My Dad had that surgery many times and not only that he had a bleed out and had the fluid in his eye replaced he has trouble seeing writing and needs everything enlarged but other than that he is still blessed to be able to see.
