Chemosis as a Fraxel side effect

Chemosis is a very common problem and is generally unrelated to laser treatments. There are a whole variety of causes of chemosis, some serious, others not. The best thing to do is to see an ophthalmologist for an evaluation of this problem. The association with your Fraxel laser treatment would appear to be a coincidence.
