### input:
Hi - my 39 year old son was diagnosed with macular edema about 6 months ago. They tried to treat it with lasers, but it didn t help. He had an MRI and the tech said there was a shadow that could have been from a mass or mini stroke. He never got to follow up with the doctor because he lost his health insurance. I don t think it was ethical for the tech to tell him anything and I m hoping if it was serious, the doctor would have called him. He has migraine or migraine-like headaches a lot, but he s also under tremendous stress from an ugly divorce. He said his eye gets worse when his stress gets worse. He said everything is wavy and when he looks at a person s face, he see black. Is this something that will go away in time and are headaches normal with macular edema? Thank you for your help.

### output:

If your Eye makes a macular edema diagnosis due to diabetes or retinal vein occlusion, focal laser treatment is often used to reduce swelling of the macular. With this form of laser surgery, your Eye M.D. applies many tiny laser pulses to areas of fluid leakage around the macular. The main goal of treatment is to stabilize vision by sealing off leaking blood vessels that interfere with the proper function of the macular. In some cases, vision loss may be improved with laser treatment. A patient may need focal laser surgery more than once to control the leaking fluid. If you have macular edema in both eyes and require laser surgery, generally only one eye will be treated at a time, usually several weeks apart. Medication injection therapy is also being used to treat macular edema. Two Chat Doctor. Anti-bug
