Blurry vision 10 days after PRK, is this normal?

Question

Hello I've had PRK 10 days ago. After removing the contacts my vision started to slightly improve but for the last 2 days things are staring to get blurry and double visioned. Is this normal? If so when does it stabilize?

Jay Bansal, MD · Answer

Dryness and fluctuating vision are not uncommon this early in your healing process. Vision is typically clear enough for you to drive after 1 week. It can take up to 3-6 months for the vision to stabilize for PRK. However, if you feel that your vision is declining, please visit your doctor's office immediately.

Thank you for sharing your case with the Realself community.  Your vision will continue to improve over the next few days.  Make sure that your surgeon is aware of your condition.  Good luck!
