Thr most issues is in my left eye where the power is also high and at the same time retinal lattice with hole is also more in that eyes. Still discomfortness in left eye , some irritation and slight burning sensation. After laser any precautions to be taken.
I have been using laptops and mobiles more because of my profession. Is it will discomfort eye after laser or i can work on laptop or mobiles?

There are no extra precautions . You can use laptop but make sure you take frequent breaks in between .
Irritation and burning sensation might be due to pre existing dry eye,which is common in people who use screen for long time.
It is not related to retinal problem
