Suggest Treatment For Scratched Cornea And Hole In The Retina
Hello, Your ophthalmologist is right in advising you to wait for some time. The time taken is to allow time for retina to heal itself. In the meanwhile, you can take treatment for corneal hole. Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
