Can a retinal detachment be treated after one year?
If retinal detachment is discovered or diagnosed only after a year, the effectiveness of surgical treatment tends to be poorer. However, if there is no eyeball atrophy, no corneal, lens, or vitreous abnormalities at this time, surgery to reposition the retina can still be considered first, followed by assessment of vision recovery. Additionally, an ophthalmic examination should be conducted, including tests like uncorrected visual acuity, corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure, ocular B-ultrasound, and fundus photography, to decide and predict the outcome of the surgery and post-operative conditions. Nevertheless, even if a year has passed since the retinal detachment occurred, active treatment should still be pursued, and one should not give up.

Do both eyes undergo strabismus surgery at the same time?
Whether strabismus surgery is performed on one eye or both eyes at the same time depends on the degree of strabismus, the condition of the dominant eye, and the nature of the strabismus, such as concomitant strabismus, paralytic strabismus, etc. It needs to be decided whether one eye or both eyes should be operated on. If the degree is quite severe, operating on the muscles of one eye may not resolve the issue, and it might be necessary to operate on the muscles of the other eye as well. However, a maximum of three rectus muscles can be operated on in one eye at the same time. Operating on more can lead to some complications. Therefore, whether to operate on one eye or both eyes should be determined based on the patient's actual condition.

The difference between floaters and cataracts
Floater disease is a vitreous opacity, while cataract is a lens opacity; these two conditions are not the same issue. Vitreous opacities can be classified as physiological or pathological. Physiological vitreous opacities appear as moving objects in front of the eyes, which are less noticeable in the dark and more noticeable under bright light; cataracts gradually affect vision. Physiological vitreous opacities in floater disease generally do not affect vision, but pathological vitreous opacities do affect vision. An eye ultrasound shows severe vitreous opacities and retinal changes, whereas the cloudiness in the lens, namely cataracts, usually means the vitreous and retina are normal.

Can flying mosquito disease be treated with a hot compress on the eyes?
Floaters can completely be treated with warm compresses on the eyes, but if the purpose is to treat floaters, then it is meaningless because warm compresses have no effect on the treatment of floaters. Floaters can be divided into physiological floaters and pathological floaters. Physiological floaters do not affect vision at all; one cannot see clearly in dark places, but can see floaters in bright conditions. In such cases, it is only necessary to ensure adequate rest, use eyes properly, and appropriately use medicines like Ammonium Iodide Peptide Eye Drops, or Phosphatidylcholine Complex Iodine Tablets. If it is a pathological vitreous opacity, one should visit the ophthalmology department for thorough examinations and active treatment to strive for the restoration of vision. (Please use medication under the guidance of a physician.)

The difference between trachoma and conjunctival concretions.
Trachoma is caused by Chlamydia infection, while eye concretions are generally caused by chronic inflammation leading to lipid accumulation. When the eyelids show symptoms of trachoma, proliferative follicles and proliferative tissues in the eyelids form cobblestone changes. The concretions are white and located subconjunctivally, generally deep enough not to affect the eyes, but if superficial, they protrude into the palpebral conjunctiva and can cause certain wear to the eyes. Symptoms such as a foreign body sensation, burning sensation, and increased secretions can result from both trachoma and eye concretions. For treatment, eye drops are used for trachoma, and the eye concretions are removed under topical anesthesia, which alleviates the symptoms.

Can flying mosquito syndrome be detected by B-ultrasound?
Floaters, also known as vitreous opacities, can be categorized into physiological and pathological vitreous opacities. Physiological vitreous opacities generally do not affect vision, whereas pathological vitreous opacities can severely impact vision. In cases of physiological vitreous opacities, patients typically see unfixed, floating objects in their vision, which vary in shape and become more noticeable in bright light, but less clear in the dark. Examinations mainly include ocular B-ultrasound, fundus photography, and fibroscope examination, which can fully assess the extent of vitreous opacity. Once vitreous opacities occur, it is important to rest, seek active treatment, and have regular follow-up examinations.
