I am the 5%. What and where did my surgery go wrong? Is a refraction going to help if lenses were blurry too?

First 4 hours after lasik I Clearly saw out of both eyes but when I woke up the next day (3am) my eyes were inflamed. I went into the dr and he refloated and put surgical contact lenses to help w inflammation. I still had clear vision until I woke up the next day with a blurry left eye. A day later my dr removes the lenses however my blurry left eye remained. I am now 4 weeks with no change to my vision. 20/51 left 20/15 right. I am now waiting for the 8 week mark to go back and see my dr.
