Follow-up question: 2 months PO, I still have ghosting and blurriness. Thoughts or advice?

Rudeboy007Apr 14, 2019
Problem with street and car lights in night. Blurry image in morning. I am recovering slowly.  Vision is still not as clear (crisp) as it used to be when I wore glasses.  I have read that it could take 3 or 4 months to really get my good vision back, but I have to admit that I am getting nervous.  Improvment is slow as compare to my colleagues and feels that I should be 20/20 by now. Before surgery I was -7.50 in left and 5.50 on right.
