Yes it is common to have blurred vision. After a procedure like refractive surgery your eyes need time to heal. Be patient and communicate with your eye care providers.
Depending on the type of laser, blurred vision is to be expected for a short period of time after treatment. LASIK treatment, also a laser procedure, is generally performed to create clearer vision but the benefits may take 24-48 hours to fully be realized. Laser treatment for diabetic retinopathy will treat the underlying issue, but may also result in some blurring depending on the location and number of laser shots administered. Hope that answers your question!
Only if there is an issue. You should consult with your surgeon asap. Best Regards, Kenmore Optical 1018 Beacon Street Suite 100 Brookline, MA 02446 www.kenmoreoptical.com (617) 505-6419
It depends on what kind of laser treatment you had.If it was LASIK or PRK laser then temporarily vision can appear blurry. Usually this clears within a few days . If you are concerned you should talk to your eye doctor that performed the laser treatment. Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS
It is normal . You have to give time to your eyes to heal and use the eye drops prescribed after surgery and follow up with your eye specialist
