What Is The Likelihood My Retina Will Detach Again After The Oil Is Removed?

I'm having silicone oil removed from my eye. I had a macular hole and 3 detachments. It has been a year since the oil was place in my eye. My doctor says I am healed. What is the likelihood my retina will detach again after the oil is removed. I have myopic degeneration.
