Can I have a lasix enhancement or do I need to do PRK or maybe just contacts and glasses?

massimo3423Feb 26, 2017
I got bladess lasix surgery 11 years with great results and no real issues. I've noticed a gradual regression in my right eye for a few months but these past 3-4 weeks I noticed a more progressive regression. I went to my optometrist and he said I did regress, and wrote a prescription for -250 for right eye and -100 for left eye. Question is can I and should I perform an enhancement or do I have to do PRK? Should I just do the right eye? Or do daily contacts ,or glasses? I'm 37 and pissed!Thx!!

There can be several reasons for foggy vision after LASIK: dry eyes, infection, uncorrected refractive error, inflammation, swelling just to name a few. You should see your surgeon as soon as possible to determine the cause and any indicated treatment.
