I have a +2.25 correction in my right eye 1.5 months after PRK - Should I worry?

Question

I had surgery 6 years ago with lasik and needed an enhancement 1.5 months ago.. turns out I have a 2.25 overcorrection... I was told to put a salt eye drop in my eye (hurts) for a month... and they would look at it again Should I worry? Is it correctable? Will it heal overtime?

It takes at least 3 months to reach your final vision after PRK, and sometimes up to 6-12 months. So I would not be particularly concerned at this time.

Overcorrections of that much are rare so it's probably too soon to worry. There many cornea and even lens based solutions so be patient and good luck.
