Blurry vision/loss of visual acuity

Hey everyone,
My vision's getting wonky in one eye—straight lines look all warped and distorted, though the other eye is doing just fine. My doctor's pushing for a vitrectomy. Honestly, I'm pretty freaked out... an eye is an eye, you know?
Anyone here actually gone through this? Any stories to share?
Thanks.

You've probably already sorted this out by now, but just so you know, a vitrectomy is surgery on the back part of the eye. My dad had to go through it—first one eye, then the other. It’s definitely not some minor, trivial procedure, but if your specialist recommended it, then you really don't have much of a choice. You only mentioned the symptoms, not the actual diagnosis...
