Blurry Vision After Double Eyelid Surgery

Vision still blurry at 8 weeks post op. Light sensitivity, eye pain and dry eye. Right eye feels like there is something in it. Astigmatism inc from cylinder -0.50 to -2.00. Eye surgeon "baffled" by slow recovery says - resolve in time. Consulted 2 other ophthalmologists. Use OTC Systane Balance 6 X daily. Can anyone offer better insight or treatment options. Or even how to find a good ophthalmologist in New York City. Thx.
