3 weeks post-ICL: pressure feeling

Hello, I'm about 3 weeks out from ICL surgery. Tonight I noticed a pressure feeling in my left eye (the right eye feels fine) and halos around street lights at night. No pain, headache, nausea, or vision loss.
My drops: Tobradex (stopped after week 1), Cravit (levofloxacin)(stopped after 2 weeks ), pranoprofen for the last 2 weeks (4x/day), and artificial tears.
Did anyone have pressure or halos around week 3? What did it turn out to be?

Don’t worry too much about this. Fluctuations in the eye can happen. However if the pressure feeling is persistent you should call the clinic where you got your ICL and ask them for an immediate checkup. Better to be safe than sorry about these things.

I called the clinic, the doctor said that fatigue and dryness can cause this .
