If you don't get laser then it has the potential to cause complications. Laser itself will have no complications, please get it done.

Undergo laser as early as possible. It is like gum which will prevent detachment of retina from those weak points. Once detached u will have to go for surgery and it's not always 100 percent succesful. Laser is very very safe. Go for it.
