I've Had my Right Eye Scraped Twice Since PRK Due to Hazing Because of Dry Eye. Is This Normal? Will my Outcome Be Affected?

I'm 2 1/2 weeks post PRK and have experienced a very difficult and painful healing process. Days 1-3 were fine, days 4-now have been horrible. I have had my right eye scraped twice since my surgery due to hazing. He said that the cells are clumping abnormally and he doesn't like it. Because of my extreme dry eyes I have plugs in all my tear ducts and could not have the bandages in longer then 2 days before extreme pain kicked in. Is this normal? Is my right eye ever going to heal right?
