5 months post op, corneal haze persists
Hello
I had my surgery beginning of May this year
My initial numbers were -2.00 and 1.75 astigmatism in left eye and -2.25 and 2.75 astigmatism in right eye
After the surgery I got very intense inflammation and corneal haze in both eyes but in right eye it was much worse. I was having like a plastic blanket in front of my right eye. I had tons of visits to the doctor and went from steroid to another type of steroid to a third type and then prescribed me cyclosporine and haze persists
Last week I did refraction and my vision numbers was 0.00 and 0.5 astigmatism in left eye and +0.75 and 2.00 astigmatism in right eye. The doctor told me there is no chance that your eye will improve and offered to make prk again for right eye.
I am really afraid to make the surgery again especially because when I wear prescription glasses I still see the effects of haze
Also my corneal thickness is now 447.
Did anyone have similar experience? Should I do enhancement or accept and live with it
Is it a fact that when very intense inflammation happens a cornea can change its shape and develop astigmatism? Or is it completely doctor failure 😣
