How long do I have to wait to smoke marijuana? I had my LASIK eye surgery on 26-12-2017.

Does wearing sunglasses at time of smoking marijuana provided by doctor prevent eyes from smoke ?? Does the usage of eye drops 4 times a day provided by doctor help to lubricate your eyes ??

Shadowing can be caused by left over prescription or dryness. Since the shadowing isn't constant and appears during concentrated activities, dryness is most likely the culprit. I recommend using artificial tears four times per day. If that doesn't help, I would pay a visit to your eye doctor.

It is still early in your healing process. Glare at night is common during LASIK recovery. Each eye may heal at a different rate. In the mean time, I recommend keeping your eyes hydrated with preservative free artificial tears because dryness may exacerbate glare.

The most likely option for retreatment after LASIK is PRK. PRK is a different kind of laser vision correction procedure that can correct myopia. I would suggest going in for a consultation to learn about your options and to see if you are a good candidate for PRK.
