Deep anterior lamellar keretoplasty

2018-03-29 14:27:46
DALK was performed in my left eye. Before it my vision was 3/60 and now it's 6/6. 7 months have been passed but dr hasn't removed sutures. What should I do? Should I wait for more time and will my vision improve further once all sutures are removed?
