I had lasis on my right eye only in 1997. Age 48 today.
Due to epitheial ingrowth there have been eight enhancements to either kill off cells or enhance vision. It has been maybe seven years since the flap has last been lifted. Current complications: -irregular astigmatism/star bursts -some glare -striae seems to have abated -the star burst has three primary points (along with many arms and legs) that results in triple vision -ablation is off center -overcorrected -very dry eye. the epithelium rips comes up easily in the morning if I don't open my eyelid using my finger. I have to irrigate the eye during the day for any comfort. My dry eye prior to the procedures and much of the reason I had it, was because I couldn't wear any type of contact lens. A lens solution is not going to work for me. I don't have a recent topography to post and seek to obtain. Is there any solution out there? I just rejoined the site after many years. It has just been too draining. I am able to wear a contact in my good eye but at some point would expect that something will have to be done with both eyes. Is there some kind of hardware/software schedule and score for certain complications on the site? |

I presume you are wearing a contact lens in the non-surgical eye to balance your eyes refractively and that glasses provide less satisfactory vision.
I can't imagine a surgeon touching the right eye again due to the previous complications, so I don't know what you mean when you say "something will have to be done with both eyes." If correcting the imbalance with a contact lens is undesirable, then a clear lens extraction for the left eye may help. It would save the risk of corneal complications in your "good" eye. |
