I am 4 days post LASIK. My RX was -2.75 in each eye. My right eye was left with 296 thickness and I know that is on the thinner side. My left eye is a little thicker and I can see perfectly. I have been keeping up on all post care instructions but my right eye is still blurry. Together my eyes have definitely improved, but when I cover up my left eye I realize how bad my right still is. Is this because they performed LASIK on a cornea that is too thin? I have been panicking for 4 days straight.
