Hi,

The blurred vision after laser surgery for tear in retina, the surgery aims to seal the torn edges of retina to prevent leaking of vitreous humor & lead to retinal detachment (a severe complication).

The surgery does not deal with floaters/flashes &they resolve over the time.These can cause blurred vision. Though bending does not cause any harm postoperatively.

You should have a good vision before you join your duty. It is risky to join if the vision is not yet clear. Please consult your operating surgeon & get your medical leave extended.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
