Chemosis that is not going away.

delphinet
I had lasik 4 months ago. A month after the surgery, I developed a chemosis on both eyes. I can close my eyes without problem. It's still here after 3 months and I don't see any improvement, even though at the end of the day, it's much better than in the mornings ; why is that? I still have a bit of dry eyes but it's bearable. Some comments say to use a lot of lubricating drops, but could these drops have caused irritation to my eyes and lead to chemosis?
