My doc told me that as we get older the vitreous gel decreases in it's volume. Imagine turning a gallon of water upside down and pouring it down the drain. As it goes out it pulls the side of the container in. My left eye was doing this some years ago and tearing the scar tissue from the laser treatments. Since having the procedure, I have not had any more bleeders in that eye.
The drawback is that eye is always bloodshot and people think I have been smoking pot.
So if it stopped the teqaring the scar tissue, it should decrease the tearing of the retina.
