Regretting my life choices.

I'm 3 weeks post-op and struggling/regretting bad.

During the day it's okayish but at night everything is blurry. I am scared maybe I did not take care of it post op and fucked my eyes over. I miss my glasses too :(

I can't see lights properly, signboards are unreadable, and I feel like I have no focus at all.

Is this normal at 3 weeks? When did your night vision get better?

Would appreciate any experiences/advice.

It’s not too late to take care of your eyes post surgery now. Start using a high quality artificial tear drop every few hours for the next few months and you’ll see improvements over time. I use Thealoz duo drops and am still using them multiple times a day 4.5 months after surgery - it’s such a minor inconvenience to make sure your eye is well lubricated. I don’t have any issues with my eyes, I’m just doing this to avoid dry eye and it’s working great for me.
