After undergoing surgery this morning to repair a partially detached retina in his right eye, Amare Stoudemire is expected to miss the remainder of the regular season.

Stoudemire could return to physical activity in eight weeks but a team press release said that would ?depend upon his healing process.?

This is the same eye that kept Stoudemire out during training camp when Boris Diaw poked it during a practice. At that time, Stoudemire suffered a partially torn iris with no damage to his cornea, retina or lens.
