Is it possible that the Fractional CO2 laser has damaged my eyes? (Photo)

sumilidon33
I did the fractional co2 laser treatment for acne scars, the doctor did not protect my eyes with anything, he applied the laser on the eyelids,I feel dryness in my eyes now. Could the fractional co2 laser have damaged my eyes? Could someone explain to me why the Dr did not protect my eyes and I applied the laser on the eyelids? Is the fractional co2 laser particularly harmful to the eyes? Could I have vision problems over the months? Please do not tell me to ask this to him (I dont trust him)
