Question I had lasik on both my eyes 3 weeks ago. 2 days after surgery i could only see opaque white out of my right eye. the doctor increases my steriod drops by by the week after surgery the doctor lifted the flap to remove what he referred to as "inflamitory debri." the following day he had to remove some tissue that was stuck and irritating my eye. I still can't see out of this eye and I have never heard of anyone who has had this problem. I have looked everywhere for information regarding my prognosis byt can't get an answer. The doctor said it might take some time but beats around the bush. I asked him how much time. He said he doesn't know. what do you recommend I do at this time. right now I have severe blurriness in the right eye. I also have constant eye pain from strain. I find myself unconsiously closing my right eye to see better but have no depth perseption.
Answer Dear Lauri,
This seems to be some 'flap related' issue.
This usually needs aggressive management.
Examples of such complications would be:
1. Corneal flap striae or displacement
2. Epithelial Ingrowth
3. Diffuse Lamellar Keratitis
If you do not get answers, it would be best to seek a second opinion.
You could send us a report for further guidance.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
