I had laser eye surgery a week ago, one eye is blurry??

Question

Do you think this means it hasn't worked, or is it just trying to heal? My right eye is fine I'm not due a check up til next Saturday.

Has anyone had it done who can give advice on this?

Answer 1

I had it done. I did not have the blurry eye problem, but I do hear this can happen. It is usually at least a week or two before your eyes stabilize from the surgery. Did you have a follow up the next day? I had my eyes checked the day after the surgery and then again a week later. I hope your appt on Sat. is not your first appt since having it done. You can always call the doctor's office, which you should do and say you are having trouble; the doctor may want to see you sooner.

I wouldn't be too worried about it. I felt as if I had something in my eye for a couple of weeks. They were checked very carefully and there was no problem. It cleared up and no problems since.

I think you will be very happy with the surgery once your eyes stabilize. I am. Good luck to you.

Answer 2

Morning,

It doesnt generally mean it hasnt worked its just sometimes one eye takes longer to heal than the other, iF you are really worried about it call the hospital/clinic that you had the surgery done at and speak to a nurse there and they will be able to help u, sounds like its blurry due to dry eye which can happen after surgery which can be treated with artifical tears, but make sure that they have NO perservatives in them.

Best of luck
