lasik eye surgery philadelphia

I went for eye checkup after one month of lasik surgery on 14/3/2007. Now, my right eye is 6/6 vision. Left eye is -0.5. Before lasik both the eyes have -4 power. Still i am seeing blurred vision only. While lubricating with drops i am able to see clear vision. Dr. told it is because of dry eye. I have done shirmer test also. The dry condition is normal only (25ml).
Now my question is blurred vision is because of dry eye or residual power in my left eye?
Then this residual power will be a constant or will it be a fluctuating power (either decrease or increase)?
Whether this residual power can be reduced by taking vitamin A tablets?
How can i know healing is over or not?
When healing will be over?
can i able to see without blurred vision?
Kindly answer my questions. I am really disappointed because of blurry vision.

Hello. I would like to share my experiences with you. I had my bladeless Intralase Lasik on 3/21/07 here in Philadelphia. Prior to the surgery, I did a lot of research, A LOT! And I learned all the advantages and disadvantages after surgery and how important it is to pick a qualified and experienced surgeon. I had a -7.00 in both eyes with astigmatism before the surgery. One month later, I am seeing 20/20 vision in each eye, which is considered perfect vision. I have mild dryness and my night vision is normal. Blurry vision is a side effect with Lasik. I was fortunate enough to not have this, however, when my eyes become dry, I add a drop of lubricant and the blurriness goes away. That blurriness is because of the mild dry eye. If you are having other blurriness, you should ask your doctor about this. From the research I have done, it suggests that people can see blurry for a few months after surgery. I have a co-worker who had the traditional LASIK done, and her eyes were blurry for two months after surgery. She was disappointed too, but it eventually went away. You should be going for regular check ups with your LASIK surgeon as well as your regular eye doctor for second opinions. Research suggests that it can take months for the eye to be totally healed, and even some research suggests that the "flap" that is created during surgery, may never heal to 100%. In regards to vitamins, from what I've read and been told by eye doctors, is that Omega 3 fatty acids help with the dryness of the eye. I have have not heard anything about vitamin A. Dryness is common, its the most common side effect of LASIK. Dryness can stay with your eye for up to a year, so be prepared for that. If you do not feel that you are getting good help from your Lasik surgeon, please go see another surgeon or eye doctor for a second opinion. Your eyes are very important! I listed a few web sites below for you to check out. The first two web sites, are two web sites that I researched before I had my surgery. These sites helped me see the disadvantages that could happen with this surgery. However, all the research suggests to make sure you choose a good surgeon who is factual and experienced. The last web site I listed is the center where I had my bladeless lasik performed. I just wanted to include this so you could see what other doctors are doing and maybe that could help with the questions you ask your surgeon or doctor. I wish you the very best of luck.

Lasik Plus - I was told to 'shop' around and get second opinions but...?
Q. I dont know what to ask on consultations. I am thinking about going to a Lasik Plus Surgery center in Philadelphia, and i was wondering how i can find info on the doctor/hospital that is NOT on their websites, obviously theyre not going to say anything bad about their company
Are there different Kinds of Lasik? I'm only 20 so i dont want to get cheated or told something thats not true. ANy info would be helpful

Answer
Start by doing some of your own research so you can learn what kind of questions you should be asking. You might try www.allaboutvision.com, this is a good consumer education site with a section on laser eye surgery. Also, try www.usaeyes.org - they have a page with "50 Tough Questions for your Lasik Doctor", as well a helpful patient forum where you can read about other people's experiences.
There are different kinds of laser eye surgeries, Lasik being very common, but there is also Lasek, epi-Lasik, and PRK. I've gotten PRK myself and now have 20/20 vision. If you are only 20, many doctors will not recommend you for surgery as there is the possibility that your eyes have not stabilized yet. You need to have had a stable prescription for at least 1 year.
Good luck with your research!
