    Floaters making it hard to shoot. Sometimes can’t see the front bead. Doc says Vitrectomy is the fix. I’m looking for trapshooters that have had this procedure and their results.

    I have had one eye done. Honestly a life changing experience. I would do it again tmrw. The only negative is it increases your odds of a cataract. I will get my second eye done when it gets bad enough.

    I’m glad to hear it went well for you. I’m going to meet the surgeon in a couple weeks. I didn’t notice the floater until after cataract surgery. So the cataracts can come back?

    You know robb, it all comes down to the risk/reward decision. You will find many like Shane who have had great success. But do not discount the risks involved.
