Sorry to hear about your troubles.There is too little technical detail in your post to even begin diagnosing the problem.You could have another problem unrelated to the laser--like a retinal detachment or cataract.You could have corneal scarring or ectasia. You should ask an ophthalmologist to review your records, do a complete eye exam, and ask him/her 1) why your vision is the way it is and 2) what can be done to improve things.
