I’ve had a retinal detachment, and 3 tears now, plus a macular hole (which was horrendous afterwards). I’m extremely short sighted, and I was told that my retinas were thinner at the edges, so they just fray and tear spontaneously. I had cryotherapy not laser on the tears, and a surgical repair to the detachment. Apart from some damage after the macular hole my vision is fine, but if you need a lot of tears repaired that can cause problems so I have my fingers crossed I (and everyone else!) don’t get any more. I hope you have recovered well.
