I had my procedure over six months ago and I’m super distraught that I’m seeing double since the procedure It’s very hard to drive and function in daily life. At first the surgeon thought it was because of swelling but a brain MRI showed scarring as the culprit . Has anyone else encountered this? I’m upset I paid top dollar for this and now I’m facing a new costly surgery that may or may not correct my vision
