My vision at computer screen distance is very unclear (blurry and double vision) 18 days after my PRK surgery. Started about 8-9 days after the surgery and has been unchanged since then. My distance vision is seems to be ok. I work at a computer all day and have not been able to return to work because of this. Called my doctors office but they told me to wait it out until my next follow up appointment. My prescription before PRK was -3.00 in both eyes and I am 27 years old. Is this normal?
I got my eyes operated (ASA) about 1.5 years ago. The expected recovery time was 15 days. Tthe error in the vision is gone, but the corneal healing is not yet complete. Consequently, I suffer from double vision because of irregular cornea. Doctor says the process is taking time and will eventually complete, easing the double vision. However, I have little hope of further improvement as the ghosting has been persistent for many months now.
I had PRK done n July 28th .. so its been a little over 2 weeks. I was seeing ok not great. I woke up on Saturday and my vision has gotten so much worse! worse than before I had the surgery. I can barley read what's on the computer screen at work everything is blurry and doubling.. is this normal?
I had PRK done on my right eye July 14, 2016. My eyesight is so blurry after surgery that I regret having it all. Prior to PRK i had Lasik done on both eyes in 2000 and 2010. I was so happy with the immediate results of Lasik. My doctor never explained and emphasized the difference of the two surgeries and that improvement wasn't immediate with PRK. Should I be concerned that my vision is so blurry that i have shadows and double vision with both near and far?
Hello Dr. I had PRK surgery 6 weeks ago and still continue to have double vision. My previous RX was -6.50 with -1.25 astigmatism (R) and -5.50 with -0.50 astigmatism (L). So far, my distance vision is excellent in daylight but indoors I notice significant double vision and an almost 30% drop in clarity. I am on Restasis, Fish oil, Vit C, and Refresh Optive PF and I am very consistent with use. I finished the prednisone eye drops at week 5. Will my double vision continue to improve? Thanks.
Hi I had Wavefront PRK done about 6 1/2 weeks ago. I'm still on steroid drops 2 times a day. What I'm concerned with is, I have perfect vision when I wake up in the morning, but vision gets worse and I get double vision after about 1 hour of waking. Then vision continuously gets worse ghosting throughout the day. Is this normal? Why do I have perfect vision in the morning but get bad vision? Also, I'm also an Asian. My eyelids are thick. Can the eyelids play part in making vision worse?
