Dry Eye Causing Light Sensitivity After Lasik?

9543anon
Had custom lasik 4 wks ago and am experiencing terrible dry eye, light sensitivity, and daytime glare. Is dry eye causing this? The light sensitivity occurs with all types of lighting including sunlight. I am not only experiencing daytime glare but also some nightime glare as well, small halos and glare off headlights. Are these caused by abberations or dry eye?
