I had Smile surgery two weeks ago and my vision is now better than my prior uncorrected vision but no where near 20/20. I was a -5.25 in both eyes before surgery and I am willing to bet I am between a negative 2.0-3.0 now. I went back in to see the doctor in regards to this and was advised SMILE is less risky but recovery takes longer. Does this sound accurate? I miss being able to see clearly and I am now regretting my decision.
I had LASIK 2 weeks today. I had starbursts before, due to my astigmatism, but now 2 weeks out and Im still seeing them, but now theres a glow around the lights ... so theyre kinda worse that before, when I would wear my contacts. Vision wise, Im 20/20, but I was hoping that the starbursts and haze around lights would have gone away by now (like I was told after my day 1 post op exam). Will this continue to heal and improve over time, or is this going to be the best that its going to get ?
My vision is clear. However since day 1 I've been having severe burning sensations every 4 hours. My eyes used to burn a lot after putting drops as well. I used milfodex sterlie drops for 10 days along with softdrops liquid gel that I was told to use for 2 months. As my eyes used to burn doc said I increase softdrops from 3 times to 5 times a day. But my eyes burned a lot after putting drops, also there was white sticky discharge every morning. I now use Zydex ocucare. Eyes still burn.
It's only been 2 weeks since LASIK. I have been so careful but last night, I rubbed my right eye while I was half asleep. I woke up straight away and panicked. It was a pretty good rub you would do on a normal unoperated eye. I haven't experienced any changes with my vision tho. I called the clinic and was told it Should be ok if I hadn't experienced blur vision. My next check up is in 2 weeks, and I am very worried that I might wrinkled the flap.
I had the surgery 12 days ago vision is awesome 20/20. No unusual sensitivity, extra glare or huge round halos. Some dry eye but drops help. The only big issue is the rainbow bursts around lights. Depending on angle i'm looking it is sometimes worse than other times. I went for one week follow up the Dr said everything looked great. Dr. said since vision good & eyes healing I dont need to come back to them for a year. Is this really normal? Will it go away on its own? The photo is an example.
I went through a customised lasik eye treatment 2 weeks ago. I started working on a computer two days after. Due to my busy work schedules i forgot taking eye drops regularly. Like i took twice or thrice when i'm supposed to take seven times and by very hour. Now my vision is shattered and i'm extremely worried that this might be a problem. I started taking them regularly from next. Also i'm invaded by insomnia? Are there any potential risks or me? Or still my problem can be rectified??
I have had a lasik surgery 15 days ago, my left eye seems to be working as expected with very sharp vision.However my right eye is suffering a bit blurry image , darkened, and hazy vision. Effect is even more noticeable at night when looking at illuminating banners or distant objects even in day light. As if I'm wearing a dirty contact lens on my right eye. The power seems fine though. My question is , will those symptoms improve by time. How long will it take? and why one eye only is suffering ?
Also seeing slightly blurry & can't focus a bit on things Is that normal ? Is this phenomena will disappear ? If it will disappear, gradually or sudden ? Can it be permanent ? What is the treatment of Rainbow glare ? When i can expect to get better ?
My eyes are getting worse day after day after my LASIK surgery 11 days ago. The day after the surgery I had perfect vision - even better than 20/20. For the next few days it remained like that until my right eye started blurring. It hasn't improved since and today even my left eye has started blurring. It's not as bad as it was before the surgery (-4.75, -4.00) and I can drive etc. But the sharp focus around words and signboards has definitely disappeared. It's causing me extreme stress.
