Suggest Precautions To Be Taken If Having A Hole In Retina Of Eye

I'm a 25 year old active female and I just found out from an eye dilation that I have a hole in my left retina...I am worried that something bad could happen to me and I could lose my eyesight. What types of things do I need to avoid or be careful not to do?

Hello,
A hole in the retina of the eye is a thing to worry about. You should get yourself checked by a retina specialist in your area, and if the diagnosis is confirmed you can get it treated by Laser therapy. It should not be ignored
Hope it helps
