Why is my right eye still blurry 3 weeks after laser eye surgery?

obshuSep 30, 2018
My right eye vision is still blurry after 3 weeks of my laser eye surgery, although my left eye is clear, I can read anything from a distance from my left eye but not from right eye. Why is that? I am worried about the situation.

It is still very early in your healing process. The prescription in your left eye may change and go away as you are fully healed. Keep up with the preservative free artificial tears every two hours and try to limit computer usage.

There are lots of treatments for dry eye but in post LASIK patients unfrozen autologous serum, in my experience, gets people to recover the fastest.See your surgeon soon.

If you are not experiencing any pain, blur, watery eyes, or light sensitivity, most likely, your flaps are intact. However, if you have any trauma to the eye, it is best to return to your doctor for an evaluation to ensure that the flaps are not moved.
